The Full Burden of RSV-related Pediatric Intensive Care Unit Admissions During Infancy: A Prospective National Study (BRICK Study)
The burden of severe RSV disease is broader than the PICU admission alone. During admission, 11% of infants experienced unwanted, detrimental events, and one-third of parents showed signs or symptoms of PTSD. Because 75% of infants were <3 months of age, the introduction of RSV immunization into the Dutch immunization program could have the potential to significantly decrease this yet unseen RSV burden too.
