- A study in Madrid examined the skin and mucous membrane symptoms in 50 hospitalized children with COVID-19 from March to November 2020.

- The findings indicated that children with these symptoms were generally older, had worse conditions upon arrival, and faced a significantly higher risk of requiring pediatric intensive care compared to those without mucocutaneous signs.

Patients And Methods: Prospective study carried out on 205 patients with ages ranging from 1 to 28 months and admitted with a diagnosis of mild or moderate dehydration due to AGE and treated with intravenous hypotonic fluids in a paediatric department in Madrid (Spain). The degree of dehydration at presentation was estimated using standard clinical measures.
This prospective study evaluated the effects of cisapride on corrected QT interval (QTc) in infants and children. From October 2000 to March 2003 two electrocardiograms (ECG) were obtained for 175 children (ranging in age from 1.5 months to 16.
