Yini i-respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) ezinganeni? I-RSV yisifo esibangelwa amagciwane esidala izimpawu ezinjengokuphefumula kanzima. Yimbangela evame kakhulu yokuvuvukala kwemigudu yomoya emincane emaphashini (i-bronchiolitis) kanye nenyumoniya ezinganeni. Izimpawu zokuqala ze-RSV zifana nezimpawu zomkhuhlane omaphakathi, okuhlanganisa ukuminyana, ikhala eligijimayo, imfiva, ukukhwehlela kanye nomphimbo obuhlungu. Izingane ezincane kakhulu zingase zicasuke, zikhathale futhi zibe nobunzima bokuphefumula. Izingane eziningi zithola i-RSV ngaphambi kweminyaka emibili ubudala. Ukutheleleka kusakazeka kalula ezinganeni ezincane ngenxa yokusondelana kwazo nezinye izingane ezingase zitheleleke, ngokuhlanganyela amathoyizi azo kanye nokuthinta njalo izinto ezingase zitheleleke ngegciwane. Ngokujwayelekile lezi zimpawu zizophela zodwa ezinsukwini ezimbalwa. I-RSV izihambela yodwa evikini elilodwa kuya kwamabili. Kufanele ushayele udokotela wakho uma wena noma ingane yakho inenkinga yokuphefumula, ingakuthandi ukudla noma inciphisa izinga lomsebenzi, izimpawu ezibandayo eziba nzima, noma ukukhwehlela okungajulile okuqhubekayo usuku lonke nobusuku. Ama-antibiotic awasetshenziselwa ukwelapha izifo ezibangelwa amagciwane, kuhlanganise nalezo ezibangelwa i-RSV. (Ama-antibiotic angase anqunywe, noma kunjalo, uma ukuhlola kubonisa ukuthi wena noma ingane yakho ine-pneumonia yebhaktheriya noma okunye ukutheleleka.).
