Introduction
Acute bronchitis is an acute respiratory infection characterised by cough productive of sputum which may be accompanied by wheezing. Viral causes include influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and parainfluenza; bacterial causes include Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Bordetella pertussis. The majority of patients with acute bronchitis who seek medical attention are
treated exclusively in primary care. New episodes presenting in primary care are estimated from the Weekly Returns Service (WRS) of the Royal College of General Practitioners (see footnote).
