Abstract
Acute respiratory infection in children (ARTI) is the most common childhood infectious disease, and its pathogens include bacteria, fungi, viruses, chlamydia, mycoplasma 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 attention from clinicians. The clinical diagnosis and treatment of acute respiratory infections in children and the research of laboratory detection methods have also been continuously developed. The manuscript presents a review of progress in the clinical diagnosis, treatment and laboratory testing of acute respiratory infections in children by collecting references.

Even the mucinous and purulent secretions may not indicate bacterial infection; severe coughing is rare, it can last for about 2 weeks; the appearance of purulent secretions or the occurrence of severe symptoms of lower respiratory tract infection may indicate that the closed eye virus is combined with or secondary to pathogenic bacteria infection

Common complications are mainly manifested as otitis media, si-
