Abstract Objective This article investigates the frequency of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) seropositivity and its association with severity new-onset ischemic stroke (AIS) among previously healthy children asymptomatic/mild disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods A case–control study that included < 18 years out-of-hospital AIS undetermined etiology a control group children. Exclusion criteria were current symptoms, previous COVID-19 diagnosis, prior vaccination, active SARS-CoV-2 infection, history hospital admission in last 6 months, having predisposition. We screened for immunoglobulin G antibodies using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The was evaluated Pediatric National Institutes Health Stroke Scale (PedNIHSS). Results 25 (15 males 10 females; median age 24 months) controls (11 14 months). detected 15 (60%) 11 (44%) (p = 0.258). Compared seronegative children, those seropositive had higher PedNIHSS scores (median 19 vs. 8.5; p 0.001), pediatric intensive care unit (93.3% 40%; 0.007), need mechanical ventilation (53.3% 10%; 0.040), D-dimer levels 3.5 1.75 μg/mL; 0.001). Conclusion may be associated more affecting during postacute phase asymptomatic/mildly symptomatic COVID-19.

Abstract Objective To design and evaluate a clinical decision support (CDS) module to improve guideline concordant venous thromboembolism (VTE) pharmacoprophylaxis prescribing for pediatric inpatients with COVID‐19. Materials methods The proportion of patients who met our institutional practice guideline's (CPG) criteria VTE prophylaxis was compared those triggered CDS alert, indicating the patient needed prophylaxis, were prescribed pre post launch new prescribing. sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative value, F1‐score accuracy tool calculated pre‐ post‐intervention periods using CPG recommendation as gold standard. Accuracy defined sum true positives negatives over positives, false negatives, negatives. Logistic regression used identify variables associated correct thromboprophylaxis Results A significant increase in triggering alert occurred period (44.3% vs. 6.9%, p < .001); however, no reciprocal achieved (36.6% 40.9%, = .53). updated had an improved sensitivity (55.0% 13.3%), NPV (44.9% 36.3%), (66.7% 23.5%), (62.5% 42.0%), but inferior specificity (78.6% 100%) PPV (84.6% 100%). Discussion model overall performance correctly identifying requiring prophylaxis. Despite identification by module, receiving appropriate pharmacologic did not change. Conclusion tools need ongoing refinement validation maximize utility.

Background COVID-19 has emerged as an independent risk factor for stroke. We aimed to determine age and sex-specific stroke incidence factors with in the US using a large electronic health record (EHR) that included both inpatients outpatients. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted individual-level data from Optum ® de-identified EHR. total of 387,330 individuals aged ≥ 18 laboratory-confirmed between March 1, 2020 December 31, were included. The primary outcome cumulative after confirmation within 180 days follow-up or until death. Kaplan–Meier curves acute ischemic (AIS), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), composite all strokes stratified by sex age, differences assessed log-rank test. relative demographics estimated multivariable Cox-proportional hazards regressions adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs). Results Of patients, 2,752 patients (0.71%, 95% CI 0.68–0.74) developed during 180-day follow-up, AIS 0.65% (95% 0.62–0.67), ICH 0.11% 0.10–0.12). among 57% occurred 3 days. Advanced associated substantially higher risk, aHR 6.92 (5.72–8.38) ages 65–74, 9.42 (7.74–11.47) 75–84, 11.35 (9.20–14.00) 85 older compared 18–44 years. Men had 32% women.
