Clinical epidemiology and disease burden of bronchiolitis in hospitalized children in China: a national cross-sectional study.

Bronchiolitis is a common respiratory disease in infants and young children in China, and it accounts for a higher proportion of both total hospitalizations and hospitalizations due to ALRTI in children. Among them, children aged 29 days-2 years are the main hospitalized population, and the hospitalization rate of boys is significantly higher than that of girls. The peak season for bronchiolitis is winter. Bronchiolitis causes few complications and has a low mortality rate, but the burden of this disease is heavy.
