Year 2021, Volume: 4 Issue: 3, 83 - 86, 30.10.2021

Abstract

Giriş
COVİD-19’un küresel olarak tüm dünyayı etkilemesi nedeniyle Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından halk sağlığı acil durumu olarak ilan edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada XXX İlindeki 18 yaş altı çocuk vakaların sosyodemografik ve çeşitli özelliklerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Materyal ve Metod
Mart-Aralık 2020 tarihleri arasında XXX İlindeki 18 yaş altı SARS-CoV-2 RT PCR testi pozitif 1431 vakanın verileri retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın yapılabilmesi için gerekli kurum izni ve etik kurul onayı alınmıştır. Çalışmanın bağımsız değişkenleri yaş, cinsiyet, ikamet yeri iken; bağımlı değişkeni pnömoni gelişme durumudur. Tanımlayıcı veriler sayı, yüzde, ortanca, en küçük, en büyük ile ifade edilmiş olup istatistiksel analizlerde Ki Kare testi kullanılmıştır. p<0.05 değeri anlamlı olarak kabul edilmiştir.
Bulgular
Çalışmaya katılan vakaların yaş ortancası 14(0-17)’dir. Hastaların %99.8’inin herhangi bir ek hastalığı olmadığı, %96’sının klinik durumu iyi olduğu saptanmıştır. Hastaların % 6.9’unda pnömoni geliştiği tespit edilmiştir. 0-4 yaş grubu ile 5-9 yaş grubunda olan hastalarda diğer yaş gruplarına göre anlamlı olarak daha yüksek oranda pnömoni gelişmiştir (p=0.004). Cinsiyet ve ek hastalık durumuna göre pnömoni gelişme arasında anlamlı farklılık saptanmamıştır (p>0.05).
Sonuç
Çalışma grubunda pnömoni gelişme oranı düşüktür. Hastaların büyük bir kısmının klinik durumu iyi olarak saptanmıştır. Küçük yaş grubunda olan çocuk hastalarda daha yüksek oranda pnömoni geliştiği görülmüştür.
