Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* Prospectively estimate the incidence of Respiratory virus (RV) infections in children with symptoms of an upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) or lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital(SJCRH).
The Secondary Objectives of the study are:
* Study the association between RV infections and clinical variables.
* Prospectively estimate the duration of RV infections in symptomatic children at SJCRH.
* Compare the sensitivity and specificity of the current molecular method of analysis of respiratory viruses with the FilmArrayTM method.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Children with upper or lower respiratory infections
Respiratory Virus infections in children who are symptomatic with either an Upper Respiratory Tract Infections and/or Lower Respiratory Tract Infections is determined by using a novel highly sensitive and rapid assay for RV detection. An aliquot from the leftover sample remaining after clinical diagnostic testing will be used for FilmArrayTM analysis. Specimens collected will include nasopharyngeal washes, nasopharyngeal swabs, tracheal aspirates and bronchoalveolar lavage as ordered by the treating physician. Diagnostic studies on this specimen will be performed as ordered and the results will be available to the treating physicians after reporting.
No interventions assigned to this group
Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria
* Patients with an URTI or LRTI undergoing collection of respiratory secretions at SJCRH, by nasopharyngeal wash, nasopharyngeal swab, tracheal aspirate or bronchoalveolar lavage as ordered by the treating physician.
