Considerations in Children and Adolescents Related to Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) - 06/07/23
Résumé |
Pediatric post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) or “long COVID” are a complex multisystemic disease that affects children’s physical, social, and mental health. PASC has a variable presentation, time course, and severity and can affect children even with mild or asymptomatic acute COVID-19 symptoms. Screening for PASC in children with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection is important for early detection and intervention. A multifaceted treatment approach and utilization of multidisciplinary care, if available, are beneficial in managing the complexities of PASC. Lifestyle interventions, physical rehabilitation, and mental health management are important treatment approaches to improve pediatric PASC patients’ quality of life.
