About This Book

Clinical Management of Pediatric COVID-19: An International Perspective and Practical Guide provides the most current international research and clinical characteristics of pediatric patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Coverage ranges from epidemiology including origin, route of transmission, incubation period, mortality and susceptibility risk factors; to pathogenesis, including difference between the adult and pediatric populations. Diagnosis is covered with special attention to the difference between adult and pediatric patients as well as the differences between newborns, children and adolescents. The book presents current complications, including multisystemic inflammatory syndrome as well as treatment therapies including antiviral and immunomodulatory therapies for this age group.

Finally, immunization efficacy and safety are examined. This is the perfect reference to provide guidance to pediatricians on the diagnosis and treatment of SARS-CoV-2, as well as a valuable source of the latest research about the pediatric population for further study.

  • Elucidates the differences between pediatric COVID-19 and its adult counterpart, outlining the correct clinical course for infants, children and adolescents
  • Covers both recent clinical practice as well as current research specific to the pediatric population
