Abstract Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is a common cause of acute respiratory infection (ARI) in adults. Prospective surveillance enables collection of representative data on demographic and clinical characteristics. Few data of this kind are available for adults hospitalized with RSV infection. We used active population-based surveillance to identify patients with laboratory-confirmed RSV infection and evaluated demographic characteristics and clinical outcomes. Methods Hospitalized adults ≥ 18 years old residing in a predefined catchment area with ≥ 2 ARI symptoms or exacerbation of underlying cardiopulmonary disease were screened for eligibility during October 2017–April 2018 and October 2018–April 2019 in 3 hospitals in Rochester, NY and New York City. Respiratory specimens were tested for RSV using PCR assays. Clinical and demographic data were abstracted from the medical record. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate the relationship of patient characteristics with clinical outcomes. Results 8,217 hospitalized adults were screened and 9.4% positive for RSV infection. Preliminary clinical and demographic data were available for 348 patients including 14% 18–49 years, 28% 50–64 years and 58% > 65 years. Mean age was 68 years and 60% were female (Figure 1). Patients had a mean of 3 co-morbidities, with diabetes (40%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (30%), chronic kidney disease (28%), congestive heart failure (28%), coronary artery disease (25%) and asthma (24%) the most common co-morbidities (Figure 2). Median hospital length of stay was 6 days (IQR 4–10), 13% of patients were admitted to the ICU, 5% were mechanically ventilated and 5% died during admission and 12% within 6 months. In multivariate analysis having > 3 comorbidities, cardiac disease or a lower baseline functional status measured by activities of daily living scores was significantly associated with 6-month mortality. Conclusion The majority of hospitalized patients with RSV infection were older adults with ≥ 3 chronic comorbid conditions. Baseline functional status may be predictive of worse clinical outcomes in patients with RSV infection. These insights into patient characteristics and clinical outcomes will provide information for prevention programs. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.
