Respiratory infections are a common concern among children, particularly in the pediatric population. These infections can range from mild illnesses like the common cold to more severe conditions such as pneumonia or bronchiolitis. Understanding the current trends in pediatric respiratory infections and implementing effective strategies for prevention and treatment is crucial for ensuring the health and well-being of children. Pediatric respiratory infections refer to infections that primarily affect the respiratory system in children. These infections can occur in various parts of the respiratory tract, including the nose, throat, sinuses, airways and lungs. They are a common cause of illness in children and can range from mild to severe, depending on the specific infection and the child's immune system.
