Objetivo: Describir la distribución de patógenos responsables de IRA durante el período 2009-2010 en Cajamarca, Perú: en el contexto de la pandemia del virus de la Influenza AH1N1 2009.
Resultados: Se encontraron 17 patógenos respiratorios (14 virus y 3 bacterias) en 124 niños, de los cuales el 50% eran hombres y el 50% mujeres, con un 55,6% (69/124) de 1 a 5 años y un 15,3% (19/124) de 6 a 11 años. Los patógenos más comunes fueron: Influenza A (20,2%, 25/124), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (14,5%, 18/124), RSV-A (12,1%, 15/124), Chlamydia pneumoniae (9,7%, 12/124). No se pudo identificar un patógeno específico en el 33,8% de los pacientes (42/124). Los signos y síntomas más comunes fueron fiebre 90,3%, tos 85,5%, rinorrea 74,2% y malestar 66,9%. El distrés respiratorio y la hospitalización fueron las complicaciones más comunes con 37,1% y 28,2% de los casos. Se informó una sola muerte de un niño diagnosticado con el virus de la influenza A. Además, se identificaron 12 casos de coinfecciones: 9 con 2 patógenos, 2 con tres patógenos y 1 con 4.
Conclusión: Los patógenos respiratorios más comunes encontrados durante la pandemia de la Influenza AH1N1 2009-2010 fueron Influenza A, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, RSV-A y Chlamydia pneumoniae. La mayoría de patógenos presentan un perfil clínico similar Se detectaron varios casos de coinfecciones, con hasta 4 patógenos en un solo paciente. / Objective: To describe the distribution of pathogens responsible for ARI during the 2009-2010 period in Cajamarca, Peru: in the context of the 2009 AH1N1 influenza virus pandemic.

A specific pathogen could not be identified in 33.8% of patients (42/124). The most common signs and symptoms were fever 90.3%, cough 85.5%, rhinorrhea 74.2% and discomfort 66.9%. Respiratory distress and hospitalization were the most common complications with 37.1% and 28.2% of the cases. A single death was reported in a child diagnosed with influenza A virus. In addition, 12 cases of coinfections were identified: 9 with 2 pathogens, 2 with 3 pathogens, and 1 with 4.
Conclusion: The most common respiratory pathogens encountered during the 2009-2010 AH1N1 influenza pandemic were influenza A, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, RSV-A, and Chlamydia pneumoniae. Most pathogens have a similar clinical profile. Several cases of coinfections were detected, with up to 4 pathogens in a single patient. / Tesis
