Overview
Bacterial tracheitis is most often caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. It frequently follows a recent viral upper respiratory infection. Common causes include Streptococcus Pyogenes, Haemophilus Influenza, Moraxella Catarrhalis, Mycoplasma Pneumonia, Echoviruses, Klebsiella Pneumonia, Adenovirus, Rhinovirus, Coxsakievirus and Influenza virus.

Causes
Bacterial tracheitis is most often caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. It frequently follows a recent viral upper respiratory infection. Common causes include Staphylococcus Aureus[2][3] Streptococcus Pyogenes, Haemophilus Influenza, Moraxella Catarrhalis, Mycoplasma Pneumonia, Echoviruses, Klebsiella Pneumonia, Adenovirus, Rhinovirus, Coxsakievirus and Influenza virus.
Life-threatening Causes
- Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of tracheitis, however complications resulting from untreated tracheitis can occur. Acute airway obstruction can occur due to rapidly developing exudates and thick membranes in the trachea which requires emergency intubation to maintain airway.

- Haemophilus Influenza
