Resumo: Aims: The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of respiratory virus in hospitalized infants, comparing the first wheezing episode (acute bronchiolitis) with recurrent wheezing. Methods: Nasopharingeal samples were colected to search respiratory virus in infants with lower respiratory infections at emergency room from May to September, in 2000 and 2001. Results: A total of 124 patients were recruited. The number of positive samples to virus was 84 (67.7%). Respiratory sincycial virus (RSV) was the most common virus found (67.8%). Bronchiolitis was diagnosed in 77 infants (62%) and recurrent wheezing in 47 infants (37%). RSV was more frequent in subjects with acute bronchiolitis, and adenovirus in recurrent wheezers. Conclusion: Our study demonstrated a high positive identification of virus in the samples studied. RSV was the most common virus detected. Our findings are similar to the previous literature from developing countries. KEY WORDS: BRONCHIOLITIS; RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS INFECTIONS; INFANT; RESPIRATORY SOUNDS.

Métodos: foram coletadas amostras de secreção nasofaríngea para pesquisa de vírus respiratórios no período de maio a setembro, em 2000 e em 2001, de pacientes que internaram na Emergência Pediátrica com quadro de infecção respiratória aguda de vias aéreas inferiores. Resultados: foram selecionados para o estudo 124 pacientes. O número de coletas positivas para vírus foi de 84 (67,7%), sendo a grande maioria (67,8%) pelo vírus sincicial respiratório (VSR). Foi diagnosticada bronquiolite aguda em 77 pacientes (62%) e sibilância recorrente em 47 (37%). O VSR foi mais freqüente nos pacientes com bronquiolite aguda e o adenovírus no grupo com sibilância recorrente. Conclusões: o estudo demonstrou uma positividade geral elevada para vírus, com a predominância do VSR. Nossos resultados são semelhantes aos da literatura de países desenvolvidos.
