Introduction: Since January 19, 2021, two vaccines against SARS-COV-2 are available in Brazil for emergency use for selected groups, not including children. Aim: To describe indirect impact on the number of hospitalized children with COVID-19 in the first three months after beginning of emergency use of two vaccines. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in children (0-18 years), admitted in two pediatric hospitals of Rio de Janeiro city, between January and April 2021 with confirmed COVID-19 by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction or serological tests. Number of cases, clinical signs, symptoms and outcomes were compared with the first wave of disease (April- June 2020). A p value of less than .05 were considered was significant. Results: The number of total admitted patients (with all diseases) were 1097 in 2020 period, being 46 (4.2%) of them with confirmed COVID-19, and 2187 in the 2021 period, with 47 (2.1%) cases (p=0.006). Predominant respiratory symptoms were present in 29/46 (63%) as the main presentation in 2020 patients and 37/47 (78.7%) in 2021 children (p=0.09). The main symptoms were fever, cough and dyspnoea in both periods. The median of lenght of stay after diagnosis were 4 days in 2020 and 2021 ( p=0.9). Just one patient died in 2021. Conclusion: There was reduction of relative percentage of admitted confirmed pediatric cases in the the first three months of emergency use of two vaccines against SARS-COV-2, but it is uncertain to atribute this finding to vaccination due to high circulation of the virus in the city.

在巴西里约热内卢,紧急使用两种疫苗的前三个月对 COVID-19 入院儿童数量的间接影响

简介:自 2021 年 1 月 19 日起,巴西有两种针对 SARS-COV-2 的疫苗可供特定人群(不包括儿童)紧急使用。目的:描述在开始紧急使用两种疫苗后的前三个月内对 COVID-19 住院儿童数量的间接影响。方法:对 2021 年 1 月至 4 月期间在里约热内卢市两家儿科医院收治的儿童(0-18 岁)进行了一项回顾性研究,这些儿童通过逆转录聚合酶链反应或血清学检测确诊为 COVID-19。将病例数、临床体征、症状和结果与第一波疾病(2020 年 4 月至 6 月)进行了比较。小于 0.05 的 p 值被认为是显着的。结果:2020年总收治患者(所有疾病)为1097人,其中 46 人(4.2%)确诊为 COVID-19,2021 年为 2187 人,47 人(2.1%)(p=0.006)。2020 年患者中 29/46 (63%) 和 2021 年儿童中 37/47 (78.7%) 以呼吸道症状为主要表现 (p=0.09)。两个时期的主要症状都是发烧、咳嗽和呼吸困难。2020 年和 2021 年诊断后住院时间的中位数为 4 天(p=0.9)。只有一名患者在 2021 年死亡。 结论:在紧急使用两种 SARS-COV-2 疫苗的前三个月,入院确诊的儿科病例的相对百分比有所下降,但不确定将这一发现归因于疫苗接种,因为病毒在城市的高传播。2020 年患者中 29/46 (63%) 和 2021 年儿童中 37/47 (78.7%) 以呼吸道症状为主要表现 (p=0.09)。两个时期的主要症状都是发烧、咳嗽和呼吸困难。2020 年和 2021 年诊断后住院时间的中位数为 4 天(p=0.9)。只有一名患者在 2021 年死亡。 结论:在紧急使用两种 SARS-COV-2 疫苗的前三个月,入院确诊的儿科病例的相对百分比有所下降,但不确定将这一发现归因于疫苗接种,因为病毒在城市的高传播。2020 年患者中 29/46 (63%) 和 2021 年儿童中 37/47 (78.7%) 以呼吸道症状为主要表现 (p=0.09)。两个时期的主要症状都是发烧、咳嗽和呼吸困难。2020 年和 2021 年诊断后住院时间的中位数为 4 天(p=0.9)。只有一名患者在 2021 年死亡。 结论:在紧急使用两种 SARS-COV-2 疫苗的前三个月,入院确诊的儿科病例的相对百分比有所下降,但不确定将这一发现归因于疫苗接种,因为病毒在城市的高传播。2020 年和 2021 年诊断后住院时间的中位数为 4 天(p=0.9)。只有一名患者在 2021 年死亡。 结论:在紧急使用两种 SARS-COV-2 疫苗的前三个月,入院确诊的儿科病例的相对百分比有所下降,但不确定将这一发现归因于疫苗接种,因为病毒在城市的高传播。2020 年和 2021 年诊断后住院时间的中位数为 4 天(p=0.9)。只有一名患者在 2021 年死亡。 结论:在紧急使用两种 SARS-COV-2 疫苗的前三个月,入院确诊的儿科病例的相对百分比有所下降,但不确定将这一发现归因于疫苗接种,因为病毒在城市的高传播。
