SARS-CoV‑2 and RSV are common viral pathogens causing acute respiratory infections. While RSV often leads to severe cases in children under two years, severe Covid-19 cases in children are rare. This study analysed 264 hospitalised children (0-12 years) with SARS-CoV‑2 or RSV infections between September 2021 and March 2022. RSV infections were more severe than SARS-CoV‑2 infections: 55% of RSV patients required oxygen therapy compared to 9.5% of SARS-CoV-2 cases (p < 0.001). The duration of oxygen therapy was 2 ± 2.6 days for RSV and 0.3 ± 1.07 days for SARS-CoV‑2. RSV patients required significantly longer O therapy (p < 0.001) and had longer hospital stays (p < 0.001) than SARS-CoV‑2 Omicron cases. Compared to Delta, only the O therapy duration was significantly longer in RSV cases (p < 0.001). Delta patients had longer hospital stays than Omicron patients (p < 0.001).
严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2（SARS-CoV-2）和呼吸道合胞病毒（RSV）是引起急性呼吸道感染的常见病毒病原体。虽然呼吸道合胞病毒常导致两岁以下儿童出现重症病例，但儿童感染新冠病毒的重症病例却很罕见。本研究分析了2021年9月至2022年3月期间264例因感染SARS-CoV-2或RSV而住院的儿童（0至12岁）。呼吸道合胞病毒感染比SARS-CoV-2感染更为严重：55%的呼吸道合胞病毒感染患者需要吸氧治疗，而感染SARS-CoV-2的患者这一比例为9.5%（p<0.001）。呼吸道合胞病毒感染患者吸氧治疗的持续时间为2±2.6天，而感染SARS-CoV-2的患者为0.3±1.07天。与感染SARS-CoV-2奥密克戎毒株的患者相比，呼吸道合胞病毒感染患者需要的吸氧治疗时间显著更长（p<0.001），住院时间也更长（p<0.001）。与感染德尔塔毒株的患者相比，只有呼吸道合胞病毒感染患者的吸氧治疗持续时间显著更长（p<0.001）。感染德尔塔毒株的患者住院时间比感染奥密克戎毒株的患者更长（p<0.001）。
