背景此前关于2019年新型冠状病毒病（COVID-19）引起的肺炎疫情的研究主要基于成年人群的信息。对于患有COVID-19的儿童，特别是受感染的婴儿，可获得的数据有限。我们报告了一例在中国确诊的55天大的COVID-19病例，并描述了患者的识别、诊断、临床病程和治疗，包括从发病第7天到第11天的疾病进展。该病例强调了COVID-19儿童也可能出现多器官损伤和快速疾病变化。在管理这类患有COVID-19的婴儿患者时，频繁和仔细的临床监测至关重要。
Background. Previous studies on the pneumonia outbreak caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) were mainly based on information from adult populations. Limited data are available for children with COVID-19, especially for infected infants.Methods. We report a 55-day-old case with COVID-19 confirmed in China and describe the identification, diagnosis, clinical course, and treatment of the patient, including the disease progression from day 7 to day 11 of illness.Results. This case highlights that children with COVID-19 can also present with multiple organ damage and rapid disease changes.Conclusions. When managing such infant patients with COVID-19, frequent and careful clinical monitoring is essential.
