研究概览
简要总结
This study aims to quantify the inpatient and ER visits burden of laboratory-confirmed influenza, and compare the clinical features, severity, complications, risk factors and socioeconomic impact of influenza in children presenting with acute respiratory illness (ARI) and/or isolated fever, with or without laboratory-confirmed influenza.
详细描述
The total medical cost associated with each hospitalization or ER visit will also be calculated at the end of this study.
The study will be conducted from October, 2010, until May, 2011. Each subject will be followed-up for 21-30 days via telephone. The follow-up medical chart review will preferably be performed within 7 days after the telephone contact.

主要结局
Number of Subjects With Laboratory-confirmed Influenza Presenting With an Acute Respiratory Illness (ARI) and/or Isolated Fever
时间窗: Day 0 till Day 28-37
ARI was defined as one or more of the following symptoms: sore throat (in children greater than or equal to (≥) 3 years old), coryza (runny nose), cough, breathing difficulties. Isolated fever was defined as: oral temperature ≥37.5°C / axillary temperature ≥37.5°C / Rectal temperature ≥38°C / tympanic temperature on oral setting ≥37.5°C / tympanic temperature on rectal setting ≥38°C without an obvious cause.
Direct Medical Cost Per Hospitalization or ER Visit With Laboratory-confirmed Influenza
时间窗: Day 0 till Day 28-37
Ward specific room charge and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) were computed as daily charge multiplied by the number of days.
