Objectives  This study investigated the frequency of the potentially pathogenic bacteria Mycoplasma. pneumoniae , Chlamydia pneumoniae , Legionella pneumophila , Bordetella parapertussis , and Bordetella pertussis among hospitalized Jordanian children. Methods  A total of 420 swab samples were collected from the throats and noses of children younger than 2 years. DNA was extracted from the swab samples and was tested for the bacteria being investigated using PCR assays. Results  The results showed the absence of M. pneumoniae , C. pneumoniae , L. pneumophila , and B. parapertussis in all samples. B. pertussis was detected in two samples (0.48%) despite DTP vaccine being part of the Jordanian vaccination schedule. Conclusion  This study suggests that certain uncommon bacterial respiratory pathogens rarely cause lower respiratory tract infections in young Jordanian children.
