To describe the clinical and laboratory profile of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infected neonates.
This is a review of hospital records, conducted in a tertiary care public hospital. Medical records of neonates born from 1 April, 2020 to 31 May, 2020 were reviewed. Women admitted in labor were screened for SARS-CoV-2 infection based on the guidelines issued by Indian Council for Medical Research. Neonates were tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection once mother tested positive, which was after day 2 of life. Demographic, clinical features, laboratory tests and chest radiographs of SARS-CoV-2 infected neonates were reviewed and neonates were telephonically followed up till the age of 2 months.
Out of 1229 mothers, 185 tested positive (15.05%); 12 neonates (6.48%) tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection. All neonates were exclusively breastfed. Symptoms, if any, were mild and self-limiting. Serum lactate dehydrogenase and liver enzymes were elevated. All neonates were healthy and thriving well on follow-up.
SARS-CoV-2 infected neonates are mostly asymptomatic and thrive well on exclusive breastfeeding.
描述严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2(SARS-CoV-2)感染新生儿的临床和实验室特征。
这是对一家三级保健公立医院的病历进行的回顾性研究。对 2020 年 4 月 1 日至 2020 年 5 月 31 日出生的新生儿的病历进行了回顾。根据印度医学研究理事会发布的指南,对临产的妇女进行 SARS-CoV-2 感染筛查。一旦母亲检测呈阳性(即出生后第 2 天),即对新生儿进行 SARS-CoV-2 感染检测。对 SARS-CoV-2 感染新生儿的人口统计学、临床特征、实验室检查和胸部 X 线片进行了回顾,并对其进行了电话随访,直至 2 个月大。
在 1229 名母亲中,有 185 名(15.05%)检测呈阳性;12 名(6.48%)新生儿 SARS-CoV-2 检测呈阳性。所有新生儿均纯母乳喂养。如果有任何症状,也是轻微且自限性的。血清乳酸脱氢酶和肝酶升高。所有新生儿在随访时均健康且生长良好。
SARS-CoV-2 感染的新生儿大多无症状,纯母乳喂养可使其茁壮成长。
