lower respiratory tract infection
Lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), while often used as a synonym for pneumonia, can also be applied to other types of infection including lung abscess and acute bronchitis. Symptoms include shortness of breath, weakness, fever, coughing and fatigue.
There are a number of infections that can affect the lower respiratory tract. The two most common are bronchitis and pneumonia.〔Antibiotic Expert Group. Therapeutic guidelines: Antibiotic. 13th ed. North Melbourne: Therapeutic Guidelines; 2006.〕 Influenza affects both the upper and lower respiratory tracts.
Antibiotics are the first line treatment for pneumonia; however, are not indicated in viral infections. Acute bronchitis typically resolves on its own with time.
In 2013 LRTIs resulted in 2.7 million deaths down from 3.4 million deaths in 1990.〔 This was 4.8% of all deaths in 2013.
