ABSTRACT: Acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI) in children is the most common infectious disease in childhood,
and its pathogens include viruses, bacteria and fungi, mycoplasma, chlamydia
and rickettsia. In recent years, with the continuous development of pathogen
detection methods, the diagnosis and treatment of acute respiratory infections
has received more and more clinical attention. The clinical diagnosis and
treatment characteristics of acute respiratory
infections in children and the research of clinical laboratory detection methods
have also been continuously developed. The author collected references to review the clinical features and new
developments in laboratory testing of acute respiratory tract infection
in children.
