Nosocomial rotavirus infection: An up to date evaluation of European studies

Abstract: Rotavirus (RV) is worldwide considered as the most important viral agent of acute gastroenteritis in children less than 5 y. Since 2006, the availability of anti-RV vaccines has deeply modified the incidence and economic burden of RV infection. In Europe, some countries have introduced an anti-RV vaccination program in the last 10 y. Although community acquired RV (CARV) disease is the most studied condition of RV infection, recently some authors have highlighted the importance of nosocomial RV (nRV) disease a… Show more

“…Hospital‐acquired viral infections are a major concern for public health. In pediatric wards, viruses account for 23‐34% of nosocomial infections, of which 65‐90% are acute gastroenteritis (AGE) . Nosocomial infections may severely affect susceptible children admitted for other causes.…”

“…Our incidence and cost data on hospitalised rotavirus cases were of high quality, but we lacked information about nosocomial rotavirus cases. We could not identify any studies on the burden of nosocomial RVGE cases for the Norwegian setting, and available international studies have been found to report highly variable results depending on the specific methodologies applied [ 45 ]. For some model parameters, particularly parameters relating to milder rotavirus cases, we made assumptions based on published data from other settings, and although extensive sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of variation in these parameters, this may have impacted the accuracy of our findings.…”

“…смертей щороку [3,5]. За даними ВООЗ, практично кожна дитина протягом пер ших 5 років життя переносить РВІ незалежно від раси та соціально економічного статусу [4,9]. Однак понад 90% летальних випадків від РВІ серед дітей до 5 років припадає на краї ни з низьким і середнім рівнями доходу [12].…”
