To map the symptoms of Long Covid (LC) presented by children and adolescents.
This is a scoping review, using the search engines Web of Science, Scopus, Virtual Health Library, and PUBMED, following the principles of the Joanna Briggs Institute.
Sixteen studies were selected, which showed that fatigue, headache, dyspnea, and cough were the most frequent symptoms of LC. There is a tendency for the development of child-adolescent LC related to the increase in age range, and the correlation between LC and predominant sex proved to be inconclusive. The presence of comorbidities, such as obesity, respiratory, neurological and renal diseases, was the most reported and a study showed an association between Covid-19 vaccine protection and LC.
This review points to a plurality of symptomatic manifestations of LC in children and adolescents, changing according to age group and health history.
梳理儿童和青少年出现的长新冠(LC)症状。
这是一项范围综述,遵循乔安娜·布里格斯研究所的原则,使用科学网、Scopus、虚拟健康图书馆和PubMed搜索引擎。
选取了16项研究,这些研究表明疲劳、头痛、呼吸困难和咳嗽是长新冠最常见的症状。长新冠在儿童和青少年中的发展有随年龄范围增加的趋势,且长新冠与主要性别之间的相关性尚无定论。肥胖、呼吸、神经和肾脏疾病等合并症的存在是报告最多的情况,一项研究表明新冠疫苗保护与长新冠之间存在关联。
本综述指出长新冠在儿童和青少年中有多种症状表现,会根据年龄组和健康史而变化。
