This study analyzes the RSV season 2021/2022 in a referral children's hospital, compares the epidemiology and illness severity with RSV-infected inpatients from 2016 to 2020 and audits the adherence to our internal therapy standard for RSV bronchiolitis. Inpatients with rtPCR-confirmed RSV infection (Jan. 2016 to Jan. 2022). The audit comprises 306 RSV inpatients, on average 50 hospitalizations per year; in 03/2020, a rapid RSV Season-Offset was observed. In the winter season 2020/2021, no patient with RSV was hospitalized. Beginning in July, we noticed a rapid increase of RSV-admissions (most cases in Sept./Oct, duration until Dec. 2021; n=53). In 2021-2022, a significant larger share needed PICU admission (9.4% vs 3.2%, p=0.040). Adherence to the internal guidance was low; only 11.8% (n=36) of all patients received supportive treatment without inhalative or systemic medications, 37% of all patients received antibiotics. This audit confirms the strong impact of public preventive measures directed against SARS-CoV-2 transmission on RSV epidemiology. Few weeks after easing public COVID-19 restrictions (summer 2021), RSV inpatient cases rapidly increased, lasting until Dec. 2021. The audit of bronchiolitis management revealed surprisingly low adherence to the internal guidance, despite a face-to-face educational session with the attending pediatricians in Oct. 2021. Low adherence resulted in an unnecessary exposure of RSV patients to systemic medications of questionable benefit including antibiotics.
