The lung microbiome in virus-induced asthma exacerbations

2017-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Acute asthma exacerbations cause significant morbidity and healthcare burden. Up to 60% of acute exacerbations are associated respiratory viruses, particularly human rhinoviruses. The role of bacteria in acute exacerbations is unclear yet antibiotics are frequently prescribed. Recent studies revealed a greater abundance of potentially pathogenic bacteria (e.g. Haemophilus spp.) within the airway microbiota in asth...
