Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about further wheezing in infants with RSV infection.. The main question it aims to answer is:

If infant factors, the infant immune response in the nose and the bacteria that reside in the nose at the time of primary RSV infection can predict/classify infants with recurrent wheezing during the following year.

A secondary aim is to identify infant immune response factors in the nose and patterns of bacteria in the nose during primary RSV infection that may help us understand why recurrent wheezing occurs.

Researchers will compare infants with repeated episodes of wheezing to infants who do not have further wheezing.

Participants will be full term infants with their first RSV infection. We will collect information on the pregnancy and birth history as well as the signs and symptoms of RSV infection. Two nasal swabs and a nasal wash will be collected from the infants. Six weeks following the RSV infection we will begin contact with the families biweekly to determine if the infant has recurrent wheezing confirmed by a medical provider. Follow-up will continue for approximately 1 year, through a second winter season.
