Characteristics and outcomes of human parechovirus infection in infants (2008-2012).

Unlabelled: Human parechoviruses (HPeVs) cause a spectrum of disease ranging from self-limiting illness to severe disease and, sometimes, death. We describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of HPeV infection in infants. The study describes the clinical and laboratory characteristics and outcomes of infants with HPeV infection during 2008-2012, from three paediatric hospitals in London each with a paediatric intensive care unit.
