Post-COVID syndrome (or long COVID) is a set of persistent symptoms occurring after a documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. Children and adolescents are also affected, with similar symptoms than adults. To date there is no clinical or biological parameter allowing to confirm the diagnosis, which relies on the presence of typical symptoms associated with a suggestive temporality, in the absence of any other explanation. These persistent symptoms can have a strong impact on the quality of life and schooling. In our specialized consultation for pediatric post-COVID syndrome, we offer a global and multidisciplinary follow-up to patients and their families, supporting them progressively resuming physical and mental activity, and pursuing school attendance to avoid dropout.
新冠后综合征(或长新冠)是指在有记录的SARS-CoV-2感染后出现的一系列持续症状。儿童和青少年也会受到影响,症状与成年人相似。迄今为止,尚无临床或生物学参数可用于确诊,诊断依赖于典型症状的存在以及提示性的时间关系,且不存在任何其他解释。这些持续症状会对生活质量和学业产生重大影响。在我们针对儿童新冠后综合征的专科会诊中,我们为患者及其家属提供全面的多学科随访,支持他们逐步恢复身心活动,并继续上学以避免辍学。
