Little is known about the relationship between specific composition of the airway microbiota and severity of bronchiolitis. We aimed to identify nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles and to link these profiles to acute severity in infants hospitalized for bronchiolitis. We conducted a multicenter prospective cohort study of 1005 infants (age <1 year) hospitalized for bronchiolitis over three winters, 2011-2014. By applying a 16S rRNA gene sequence and clustering approach to the nasopharyngeal aspirates collected within 24 hours of hospitalization, we determined nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles and their association with bronchiolitis severity. The primary outcome was intensive care use – i.e., admission to an intensive care unit or use of mechanical ventilation. We identified four distinct nasopharyngeal microbiota profiles – three profiles were dominated by either Haemophilus, Moraxella, or Streptococcus, while the fourth profile had the highest bacterial richness. The rate of intensive care use was highest in infants with a Haemophilus-dominant profile and lowest in those with a Moraxella-dominant profile (20.2% vs 12.3%; unadjusted OR, 1.81; 95%CI, 1.07-3.11; P=0.03). After adjusting for 11 patient-level confounders, the rate remained significantly higher in infants with a Haemophilus-dominant profile (OR, 1.98; 95%CI, 1.08-3.62; P=0.03). These findings were externally validated in a separate cohort of 307 children hospitalized for bronchiolitis.
