2020年2月，新冠肺炎疫情席卷意大利。我们回顾性回顾了2020年2月24日至4月24日意大利儿科转诊医院因异物摄入（FBIs）而入院的所有患者和急诊（A&E），并将其与前4年同期进行了比较。共录得101宗个案。平均入院年龄4.6岁。各组在性别（P = 0.4）和年龄（P = 0.3）上均无差异。在摄入FBIs的人群中，24.0%发生在小于2岁的儿童中，47.5%发生在2 - 6岁的儿童中。在2020年的研究期间，有9名患者摄入了电池，而在比较期间的中位数为1名。在观察期间，电池摄食率显著增加（P < 0.001）。我们报告说，在COVID-19大流行封锁期间，儿童摄入电池的情况急剧增加，这是一种潜在的致命事件。
In February 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic overwhelmed Italy. We retrospectively reviewed all attendances and emergency (A&E) admissions due to foreign-body ingestions (FBIs) to an Italian pediatric referral hospital, from February 24 to April 24, 2020, COVID-19 lockdown and compared them with the same period in the previous 4 years. A total of 101 cases were recorded. Mean age of admission was 4.6 years. Groups did not differ for gender (P = 0.4) or age (P = 0.3). Among FBIs ingestions, 24.0% occurred in children with <2 years of age and 47.5% in children from 2 to 6 years of age. In the 2020 study period, 9 patients were seen for batteries ingestion compared with a median value of one among compared periods. The rates of batteries ingestions increased significantly over the observational period (P < 0.001). We report a dramatic increase in batteries ingestions in children, a potentially fatal event, during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.
