Monthly administration of monoclonal antiF anti body (palivizumab) throughout the RSV season reduces the inci dence of hospitalization due to RSV infection in infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, congenital heart disease, and pre maturity by about 50% (see Chapter 225, Respiratory Syncytial Virus). Early trials indicated that ribavirin therapy was associated with modest improvement in clinical scores, oxygenation, and duration of mechanical ventilation for infants with severe bron chiolitis due to RSV infection. Duration of hospitalization in previously well infants with respiratory syncytial virus infection Ribavirin aerosol treatment of bronchiolitis associated with respiratory syncytial virus infection in infants Intravenous immunoglobulin treatment of respiratory syncytial virus infections in infants and young children Respiratory syncytial virus immune globulin treatment of RSV lower respiratory tract infection in previously healthy children	./cache/cord-023721-e0zp2gux.txt	./txt/cord-023721-e0zp2gux.txt
