Background. Children with frequent acute respiratory viral infections and clinical symptoms of the upper respiratory tract are often prescribed unwarranted surgical treatment. The aim of this study was to assess the allergic reactivity in children with frequent acute respiratory viral infections and obstructed nasal breathing. Methods. The study included 48 children aged from 2 to 7 years old, 29 boys and 19 girls. Clinical examination including anamnesis morby and family anamnesis of allergy, endoscopic examination of the nose and nasopharynx, total and allergen-specific IgE determination were performed. Results. In 87,5% of children with frequent acute respiratory viral infections and previously diagnosed adenoid hypertrophy degree II-III with a block of auditory tube pharyngeal mouths or hypertrophy of adenoid hypertrophy with II degree pipe rollers, pipe tonsils, allergic rhinitis (?) hypersensitivity to house dust mites and in 54,1% to pollen was detected. In 25,0% of children allergen-specific IgE antibodies to food allergens (cow’s milk, nuts, grains, pears) were identified. 33,3% of children had high levels of allergen-specific IgE antibodies to cats and dogs epidermidis. Conclusion. Children with frequent acute respiratory viral infections and nasal obstruction require allergist survey to develop treatment strategies.
