Objective: to estimate the frequency and describe the clinical characteristics and respective treatments of previous history of wheezing. methods: infants aged 6-23 months with upper respiratory tract complaints and reporting previous wheezing were followed-up retrospectively. data were registered on a validated standardized form. results: out of 451 infants,164 (36.4%; 95%ci: 31.9-41.0) had a report of prior history of wheezing,148 (32.8%; 95%ci: 28.5-37.4) during the first year of life. the mean age at the first episode of wheezing was 5.3±3.9 months. among those who had had their first episode before 12 months of age,38.5% reported 3 to 6 episodes and 14.2% > 6 episodes. mean age at first episode was lower for those with ≥ 3 episodes in comparison with those with ≤ 2 episodes (3.2±2.7 vs. 5.7±2.5 months,p < 0.001). conclusion: one third of the infants reported wheezing during the first year of life. the earlier the first episode occurs,the more frequently wheezing recurs. copyright © by sociedade brasileira de pediatria.
