In this video Dr. Anthony Crocco (Sketchy EBM) outlines the symptoms of COVID-19, how to protect yourself and your family, what to do to be well and when to worry. This video is not a substitute for medical care. Please consult Public Health or your health professional for medical advice.

The International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) Clinical Practice Consensus Guidelines 2018 for management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and the hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state provide comprehensive guidance for management of DKA in young people. Intravenous infusion of insulin for treating DKA may necessitate intensive care unit admission in hospitals in some parts of the world. During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, ICU services may need to be prioritised for care of affected individuals

This statement is based on the Novel Coronavirus Infection Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Standards (the fourth edition) (National Health Committee) and other previous diagnosis and treatment strategies for pediatric virus infections. The present consensus statement summarizes current strategies on diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of 2019-nCoV infection in children.

Objective: This review characterizes clinical symptoms, laboratory, and imaging findings, as well as therapies provided to confirmed pediatric cases of COVID-19.

Objective: This systematic review with meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the epidemiological spectrum and clinical characteristics of children infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Objective: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) associated with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a rare and challenging diagnosis requiring early treatment. The diagnostic criteria involve clinical, laboratory, and complementary tests. This review aims to draw pediatrician attention to this diagnosis, suggesting early treatment strategies, and proposing a pediatric emergency care flowchart.

Objective: To develop a more comprehensive description of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), a novel syndrome linked to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, by conducting a systematic analysis of studies from different settings that used various inclusion criteria.

Introduction: The novel coronavirus pandemic is an ongoing challenge faced by the public and health care systems around the globe. Majority of information and evidence gathered so far regarding COVID-19 has been derived from data and studies in adult populations. Crucial information regarding the characterization, clinical symptomatology, sequelae, and overall outcomes in the pediatric population is lacking. As such, we aimed to conduct a comprehensive meta-analysis and systematic review to collect and analyze current evidence about COVID-19 in the pediatric population.

Objective: To describe our experience concerning lung ultrasound (LUS) in the pediatric emergency clinic, and to investigate the diagnostic value of LUS in coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19).

Objective: To report the findings from different types of clinical specimens collected from 82 infected individuals

Objective: In order to determine the spectrum of disease in children, we evaluated children infected with SARS-CoV-2 and treated at the Wuhan Childrens Hospital, the only center assigned by the central government for treating infected children under 16 years of age in Wuhan.

Objective: To report the clinical and epidemiological features in children with coronavirus diseases (COVID) in China.

Objective: To retrospectively review two confirmed pediatric cases from two family clusters. Both clinical features and laboratory examination results of the children and their family members were described.

Objective: This study examined the epidemiological characteristics and transmission patterns of 2143 pediatric patients with COVID-19, using a retrospective analytical approach.

Objective: For this retrospective study, authors identified all hospitalized infants diagnosed with COVID-19 infection between December 8, 2019, and February 6, 2020, in China and described demographic, epidemiologic, and clinical features.

Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in newborns, infants and children

Objective: This report summarizes the epidemiologic features and the snapshots of the outbreak in the Republic of Korea from January 19 and March 2, 2020.

Objective: To describe the clinical features of severe pediatric patients with COVID-19.

Objective: To study the viral load courses by RT-PCR in oro- and nasopharyngeal swabs, sputum, stool, blood, and urine in nine hospitalized cases. Infectious virus was detected by cell culture.

Objective: We report here on peculiar (perniosislike) skin lesions, unreported in the previous years, observed in young outpatients visited in our dermatologic unit in the last 4 weeks of COVID19 pandemic (MarchApril 2020).

Objective: The Coronavirus Infection in Pediatric Emergency Departments (CONFIDENCE) study involved a cohort of 100 Italian children younger than 18 years of age with Covid-19 confirmed by reverse-transcriptasepolymerase-chain-reaction testing of nasal or nasopharyngeal swabs who were assessed between March 3 and March 27 in 17 pediatric emergency departments. Here, we describe the results of the CONFIDENCE study and compare them with those from three cohorts in previously published analyses.

Objective: We have recently noticed an outbreak of chilblainlike lesions in Italy contemporarily to COVID19 epidemic. Due to the wellknown lockdownrelated difficulties to visit the patients, we created a Google form aimed to collect information about patients presenting with these singular clinical findings. An easy to access and quick tool was chosen by the investigators in order to permit the other colleagues to spend the least amount of time, given the severe health emergency.

Objective: Since December 2019, SARS-CoV-2 has extended to most parts of China with >80 000 cases and to at least 100 countries with >60 000 international cases as of 15 March 2020. Here we used a household cohort study to determine the features of household transmission of COVID-19.

Objectives: To describe the cutaneous manifestations of COVID-19 disease and to relate them to other clinical findings.

Objective: To describe testing for SARS-CoV-2 and the epidemiology of infected patients.

Objectives To characterize the demographics, comorbidities, symptoms, in-hospital treatments, and health outcomes among children/adolescents diagnosed or hospitalized with COVID-19. Secondly, to describe health outcomes amongst children/adolescents diagnosed with previous seasonal influenza. Design International network cohort.

Objective: To describe the cardiac manifestations found in an international cohort of 55 pediatric cases with multi-system inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) during the SARS-CoV2 pandemic.

Objective: This study aimed to capture key data on children and adolescents with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection across Europe to inform physicians and health-care service planning during the ongoing pandemic.

Objective: To characterize the demographic and clinical features of pediatric severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) syndromes and identify admission variables predictive of disease severity.
