Objective:To evaluate the impact of the severe COVID-19 pandemic on neonates and develop strategies to improve their outcomes.Methods:We conducted an observational cross-sectional study at Children's Hospital 1(CH1)from July 25,2021,to May 31,2022.All neonates who had fever or respiratory symptoms or were born from mothers with COVID-19 and had a positive RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 result would be included.We classified neonates with COVID-19 into 2 groups:mild/moderate and severe for analysis.Differences between groups were analyzed using Fisher's exact test/Chi-square test for categorical variables and Student's t-test/Wilcoxon Rank Sum test for continuous variables.Results:This study included 88 newborns who had positive RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 results.The severity COVID-19 rate among neonatal cases was found to be 13.6%(12/88),with a corresponding mortality rate of 1.1%(1/88).All severe cases showed lung abnormalities as evident on chest X-ray images.In addition to respiratory symptoms,a higher incidence of gastrointestinal manifestations,such as vomiting and diarrhea,was observed in the severe group,indicating a compelling association.The administration of anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory drugs in the study group resulted in a satisfactory outcome with no significant complications.Conclusions:The COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial impact on the well-being of neonates.The management of COVID-19 in this population presents significant challenges.
