COVID-19 Pandemisine Pediatrik Yaklaşım

Yeni koronavirüs hastalığı (2019-nCoV, COVID-19) ilk kez Çin’de 2019 yılı sonlarında bildirilmiştir. Kısa sürede tüm dünyayı etkilemiş ve pandemi olarak kabul edilmiştir. Çocuklarda kliniği erişkinlere göre hafif seyretmektedir ve çocuklarda prognoz iyidir. Tanısı gerçek zamanlı polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu testi ile konulur. Çocuklarda spesifik laboratuvar testi yoktur. Bağışıklığı baskılanmış ve altta yatan hastalığı olan çocuklarda hastalık daha ağır seyreder. Şu an için çocuklarda COVID-19 enfeksiyonuna yönelik tedavi için yeterli ve kesinleşmiş veriler bulunmamaktadır. Bu derlemede güncel literatür bilgileri ışığında COVID-19 hastalığının çocuklarda epidemiyolojisi, kliniği, tanısı, tedavi yaklaşımları ve olası sık görülen temas durumlarına karşı korunma önlemlerinin sunulması amaçlanmıştır.

Pediatric Approach to COVID-19 Pandemic

The novel coronavirus disease (2019-nCoV, COVID-19) was first reported in China in late 2019. It has impacted the world in a short time and characterized as a pandemic. The clinical picture in children is milder than adults and prognosis are good in children. The diagnosis is made by a real-time polymerase chain reaction test. There is no specific laboratory test for COVID-19 infection in children. The disease progresses more severely in children with an underlying condition and immunocompromised children. There are currently no sufficient and conclusive data on treatment for COVID-19 infection in children. This review aims to present the epidemiology, clinical picture, diagnosis, treatment approaches, and possible preventive measures of COVID-19 disease in children in light of the current literature.
