Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint is disease severity of RSV infection in the first year of life. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Long term sequelae of RSV disease in the first year of life. 2. RSV viral load (copies/ml) and genetic sequence. 3. Differences in immune responses between mild and severe RSV infection. 4. Transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and epigenetic signatures of mild and severe RSV infection. 5. Storage of biological samples (respiratory, saliva, blood, stool and urine) in a biobank. 6. Health care utilization and costs for RSV associated ARTI and long term sequelae. 7. Applicability of found biomarkers to infants with comorbidities with RSV infection. Extension to six years of age part: 8. To compare the incidence of asthma after RSV hospitalization with the incidence of asthma after milder RSV infection. 9. To compare the incidence of asthma after RSV hospitalization with the incidence of asthma after hospitalization due to other viral infections. 10. Determine the risk factors for persistent wheezing at the age of 3 and 6 years. | — |
