We retrospectively analyzed the epidemiological and clinical manifestations of six children with novel coronavirus infection diagnosed in Chongqing Three Gorges Central Hospital from February 3, 2020 to February 15, 2020.Compared with the diagnostic criteria of suspected cases, we summarized the problems encountering in the application of this standard in clinic and try to put forward suggestions for improvement.Results:
Among the six confirmed cases five males and one female; three from Hubei Province and three from Wanzhou; six cases of clustered onset of the family.Visiting nature six cases of suspected case, six cases from community or outpatient screening.Three fever cases with/without respiratory symptoms, one of which had diarrhea; all children′s blood routine and lymphocyte counts were within the normal range; chest CT imagings of No.1 and No.5 case showed typical novel coronavirus pneumonia signs, and the other three patients had abnormalities without the characteristics of novel coronavirus pneumonia, and one case was normal.Comparisonresults:
