Impact of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) in Adults 60 Years and Older in Spain.

: Respiratory illnesses frequently lead to hospitalization in adults aged 60 and older, especially due to respiratory viral infectious (RVI). This study investigates hospitalization patterns and characteristics of RVI at HM Hospitals from October 2023 to March 2024; : We retrospectively explored hospitalizations of patients aged 60 years and older with RVIs, gathering data on demographics, clinical profiles, comorbidities, and treatments. Outcomes included hospitalization, ICU admissions, and mortality, and independent factors associated with outcomes were identified using a multi-state model; : From October 2023 to March 2024, from a total of 3258 hospitalizations, 1933 (59.
