OBJECTIVE: To compare the risk of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-associated hospitalization and analyze the epidemiology of RSV infection in patients with cyanotic and acyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD), we analyzed the nationwide health insurance database from 2005-2010. STUDY DESIGN: This study included 1050 patients with cyanotic CHD and 7077 patients with acyanotic CHD. Patients with acyanotic CHD were further classified into hemodynamically significant (hs)-acyanotic and non-hs-acyanotic groups according to whether they underwent surgery or took at least 2 anticongestive medications. RESULTS: RSV-associated hospitalization was higher in the cyanotic group than in hs-acyanotic and non-hs-acyanotic groups both before 1 year of age (4.8% vs 2.1% vs 1.5%, P < .001) and between 1 and 2 years of age (0.9% vs 0.56% vs 0.14%, P = .003). The hospitalization duration, intensive care, ventilator support prevalence, hospitalization cost, and mortality rate were significantly higher in the cyanotic group than in the other 2 groups. Logistic regression revealed that cyanotic CHD was the most significant risk factor for the ventilator support and RSV-associated mortality. In both patients with cyanotic and acyanotic CHD, RSV-associated hospitalization rate was higher in patients aged younger than 1 year and in spring and autumn in Taiwan, a subtropical country. CONCLUSIONS: The results show that patients with cyanotic CHD have a higher risk of severe RSV infection than do those with acyanotic CHD. RSV prophylaxis is more important and may reduce costs more for patients with cyanotic CHD.
