ABSTRACT
B Conclusion:
b A systematic, team-based approach to a nosocomial outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 among children with chronic mechanical ventilation prevented the spread of COVID-19 in this vulnerable population preventing high morbidity and mortality. All patients required transient escalation of ventilatory support, and 4/5 patients (80%) demonstrated gastrointestinal symptoms. We report a review of five children with tracheostomy and long-term mechanical ventilation admitted to an intermediate care facility who contracted SARS-CoV-2 virus during hospitalization.
