Results

RSV infection is a common and severe pediatric illness. While rapid diagnostic kits are satisfactory, there is room for improvement in treating severe cases and preventing the infection in high-risk children. Caregivers and families face substantial anxiety and stress, resulting in significant economic and physical burdens. Healthcare providers are concerned about patient deterioration and the associated economic and occupational burdens. The RSV season poses a significant challenge for healthcare staff.

Baseline Characteristics

The main survey was conducted from November 27, 2022, to December 5, 2022. Table 1 presents the background of the 300 participating physicians. Among them, 81.0% were male, with a mean age (standard deviation, SD) of 49.3 (12.3) years and a mean experience of 22.9 (10.9) years. A total of 243 (81.0%) were board-certified pediatricians by the Japan Pediatric Society, while 21 (7.0%) were certified by the Japanese Society of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. Over half, 154 (51.3%), worked primarily in general hospitals. Among the physicians, 83 (27.7%) either had no children or preferred not to answer. Of the physicians with children, 64 (21.3%), 34 (11.3%), and 106 (35.3%) reported having children aged 7-12 years, 13-15 years, and 16 years or older, respectively. Furthermore, out of the physicians with children, 108 (49.8%) reported no previous experience of their children being infected with RS virus.

Participant flow

Participants were Japanese pediatricians who had treated three or more patients with RS virus infection in the past year and currently provided medical care in outpatient clinics, inpatient settings, or emergency departments. The qualitative interviews were conducted with participants recruited from PD Research Inc.'s panel, while participants for the pilot and main surveys were recruited from Nikkei Business Publications Inc.'s panel through Rakuten Insight Inc. Physicians who participated in the pilot survey were excluded from the main survey. Nikkei Business Publications Inc.'s panel is widely used for market research and surveys related to clinical activities, with approximately 130,000 registered physicians as of July 2021, including approximately 9,500 pediatricians.

Adverse events

There were no Adverse events in this study.

Outcome measures

1.Frequency, severity, and prevention needs of RSV infection as perceived by pediatricians.
2.Needs, satisfaction, and burden of caregivers/families and healthcare providers in the management of RSV infection as perceived by pediatricians.
