==Differentiating Swine influenza from other Diseases==
==Overview==
Swine influenza should be differentiated from the following diseases or pathogens that cause [[upper respiratory tract infection|upper]] or [[lower respiratory tract infection]] or [[flu-like illness]], such as other [[influenza virus]]es, such as [[human influenza|human]] or [[swine influenza]], other viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic agents that are typically associated with [[nasopharyngeal infection|nasopharyngeal]] and [[respiratory tract infection]]s, and non-infectious causes, such as [[asthma]], [[chronic obstructive pulmonary disease]] (COPD), [[drug adverse effects]], and [[cardiac]] causes.


Clinicians should consider swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection in the differential diagnosis of patients with febrile respiratory disease and who :

Overview

Swine influenza should be differentiated from the following diseases or pathogens that cause upper or lower respiratory tract infection or flu-like illness, such as other influenza viruses, such as human or swine influenza, other viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic agents that are typically associated with nasopharyngeal and respiratory tract infections, and non-infectious causes, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), drug adverse effects, and cardiac causes.

Differential Diagnosis

Influenza should be differentiated from the following diseases or pathogens that cause upper or lower respiratory disease or flu-like symptoms:[1][2]
