The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant challenges for the resuscitation of paediatric patients, especially for infants and children who are suspected or confirmed to be infected. Thus, the paediatric subcommittee of the Singapore Resuscitation and First Aid Council developed interim modifications to the current Singapore paediatric guidelines using extrapolated data from the available literature, local multidisciplinary expert consensus and institutional best practices. It is hoped that this it will provide a framework during the pandemic for improved outcomes in paediatric cardiac arrest patients in the local context, while taking into consideration the safety of all community first responders, medical frontline providers and healthcare workers.
COVID-19 大流行给儿科患者的复苏带来了重大挑战，特别是对于疑似或确诊感染的婴儿和儿童。因此，新加坡复苏和急救理事会的儿科小组委员会利用现有文献中的外推数据、当地多学科专家共识和机构最佳实践，对当前的新加坡儿科指南进行了临时修改。希望在大流行期间，这将为当地儿科心搏骤停患者提供一个改善预后的框架，同时考虑到所有社区第一响应者、医疗一线提供者和医护人员的安全。
