3 Learning Objectives Recognize the clinical characteristics of bronchitis and bronchiolitis Describe how the clinical characteristics of bronchiolitis relates to the pathogenesis of RSV infection. Discuss potential complications, management and prevention strategies for RSV-induced bronchiolitis. Compare the clinical manifestations of RSV to that of human metapneumovirus 3

7 Bronchitis clinical manifestations & pathogenesis Productive cough for to days 7

8 Bronchitis clinical manifestations & pathogenesis Productive cough for to days Purulent sputum - 50% of patients; does not mean bacterial infection Predominantly viral; few bacterial causes Fever is unusual 7

9 Bronchiolitis LRT Trachea Bronchi Bronchioles Lung Bronchitis Bronchiolitis Parainfluenza, Influenza Adenovirus, Metapneumovirus RSV, Corona RSV, Influenza, Metapneumovirus Adenovirus Pneumonia All 8

10 Bronchiolitis Clinical Manifestations Affects mostly infants and young children 4-6 day incubation period most common in Winter Begins with URI symptoms and fever Progress to tachypnea, cough, respiratory distress with retractions and wheezing 9

11 RSV- Pathogenesis Mucus & debris RSV infects respiratory epithelial cells Innate immune sensors detect PAMPs and produce interferon and other cytokines and chemokines Inflammatory cells recruited Increased vascular flow, permeability and increased mucus production Apoptosis and sloughing of epithelial cells Swelling 11

12 Bronchiolitis Pathogenesis & Clinical Manifestations Outpouring of mucus & inflammatory cells leads to Small airway plugging with air trapping Impeded gas exchange 12

13 Bronchiolitis Complications Respiratory failure Apnea in newborns and/or premature infants Increased severity in: newborns and the elderly congenital heart disease chronic lung disease immune compromised 13

14 Bronchiolitis Treatment Assess the severity and progression Determine risks factors Treatment is supportive Drugs to overcome airway obstruction? 14

15 RSV Respiratory Syncytial Virus F G 1 serotype RSV is the most important viral pathogen during the first year of life. Two important surface proteins (F-fusion & G-attachment) Syncy'um enveloped Paramyxoviridae Parainfluenza Metapneumovirus Mumps Measles Hendra Nipah 15

16 RSV- Mechanisms of Immune evasion Protective immunity is incomplete and short-lived G-protein is heavily glycosylated G-protein can be produced in a soluble form and act as a decoy RSV can infect dendritic cells and reduce antigen presentation to T-cells F G 17

17 RSV- Mechanisms of Immune evasion Protective immunity is incomplete and short-lived G-protein is heavily glycosylated G-protein can be produced in a soluble form and act as a decoy RSV can infect dendritic cells and reduce antigen presentation to T-cells F G 17

19 Host Factors Involved in RSV disease After age 2 most children do not develop severe disease from RSV Smaller airways and less respiratory capacity and reserve Immature infant immune system Innate and adaptive responses may be deficient compared to adults 18

20 Host Factors Involved in RSV disease Immunopathology recurrent wheezing in some infants after RSV association with asthma later in life 19

21 Prevention of RSV disease No vaccine available Passive immunity Palivizumab- Monoclonal Antibody against F-Protein Used in children < 2 years with cyanotic congenital heart disease, chronic lung disease, or prematurity < 35 weeks F G 20
