In this study, we describe etiological agents, demographic details of patients, and seasonality (including association with meteorological factors) due to viral RTIs in a teaching hospital in Kuala Lumpur, over the last 27 years. Our findings support a previous local study carried out over a year, which showed that RSV was the most commonly detected respiratory virus, followed by parainfluenza viruses, influenza viruses and adenovirus [7] . Respiratory viral infections due to RSV, parainfluenza viruses, influenza viruses and adenovirus are significant causes of morbidity in hospitalized children in Kuala Lumpur, and are likely to be underdiagnosed. ./cache/cord-332361-pdoln3nr.txt ./txt/cord-332361-pdoln3nr.txt
