    Snippet: Clinical data of HMPV infections are shown in Table 2 . Children's mean age was 13.83 ± 18 months, 58% (125/214) were males, and 15.5% were preterm infants. Fever was frequent (69%; 148/214), and bronchiolitis (27%; 47/214), and recurrent wheezing (63%; 108/214) were the main clinical diagnosis. Hypoxia was present in 65% (140/214) of the patients; with a mean duration of 2.9 ± 2 days and 47% (82/214) of them had an infiltrate in X-ray. The len.....
    Document: Clinical data of HMPV infections are shown in Table 2 . Children's mean age was 13.83 ± 18 months, 58% (125/214) were males, and 15.5% were preterm infants. Fever was frequent (69%; 148/214), and bronchiolitis (27%; 47/214), and recurrent wheezing (63%; 108/214) were the main clinical diagnosis. Hypoxia was present in 65% (140/214) of the patients; with a mean duration of 2.9 ± 2 days and 47% (82/214) of them had an infiltrate in X-ray. The length of the stay was 4.4 ± 2.3 days. Only 6 (2.8%) children were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Infants less than 6 months of age have less proportion and duration of fever, but longer duration of hypoxia and stay. Diagnosis of bronchiolitis was more frequent in this group (Table 3) . Single infections were compared with coinfections of HMPV with other viruses (Table 2) , and only duration of the hospitalization was different, being longer in the coinfections group (p <0.05).
