AI Article Synopsis
- A multicenter study involving 15 hospitals analyzed 101 pediatric patients hospitalized due to COVID-19, focusing on gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms.
- GI symptoms were found in 57% of the patients, with 14% experiencing them as the first sign of infection.
- Children with GI symptoms had an increased risk of requiring admission to the pediatric intensive care unit, indicating that these symptoms could predict the severity of COVID-19 in hospitalized kids.
Article Abstract
Multicenter study conducted in 15 hospitals including 101 COVID-19 pediatric inpatients aiming to describe associated gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations. GI symptoms were present in 57% and were the first manifestation in 14%. Adjusted by confounding factors, those with GI symptoms had higher risk of pediatric intensive care unit admission. GI symptoms are predictive of severity in COVID-19 children admitted to hospitals.
