    Document: Ongoing research at King's college London (UK) has recently re-examined prematurely born cohorts at school age (5-8 years) for whom data on all respiratory viral infections in infancy, as well as whether or not hospital admission was required were recorded (17) . The RV group had a poorer lung function than those who had not suffered an LRTI during infancy. Cluster analysis of the data demonstrated that infants with an extremely low birthweight requiring prolonged ventilation were at an increased risk of suffering from an RV LRTI in infancy and had higher healthcare utilisation and impaired lung function at school age (18) . These data suggest that both RSV and RV LRTI increase chronic respiratory morbidity in prematurely born infants and, as a consequence, this should be taken into consideration regarding the development of relevant preventative strategies.
