A prospective longitudinal study assessing the impact of rhinovirus and bacterial infections in acute exacerbations of chronic rhinosinusitis
In a one-year prospective longitudinal study involving CRS adults, we identified significant risk factors for AECRS including seasonality and the presence of RV and bacterial infections. These data suggest a standard definition of AECRS and the need to target RV and bacterial infections if we are to help reduce disease severity.
