INTRODUCTION: Evidence suggests that coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) infection is associated with increased perioperative mortality in adults. We hypothesized that children with COVID-19 had worse outcomes after emergency surgery compared to children without COVID-19.
METHODS: Children <18 y who underwent emergency abdominal surgery were included in the 2021 National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-Pediatric database. Children with COVID-19 diagnosed preoperatively were identified. A propensity score-matched analysis was performed, matching demographic and clinical factors. Postoperative morbidity and mortality were assessed. Due to event rarity, a composite outcome for postoperative morbidity was also assessed. Chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests identified differences between groups. Logistic regression identified the odds of the composite morbidity outcome.
RESULTS: Overall, 13,619 children (median age 10.8 y, interquartile range: 6.4-14.2) underwent emergency abdominal surgery, of whom 224 (1.6%) had COVID-19. The majority were female (58.2%), White (61.3%), and non-Hispanic (53.4%). On unadjusted analysis, there was an association between COVID-19 status and American Society of Anesthesiologists classification (P < 0.01). A greater proportion of COVID-19-positive children had dirty/infected wounds (30.4% versus 22.2%, P < 0.01). Also, a greater proportion of COVID-19-positive children suffered cardiac arrest requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (1.3% versus 0.2%, P < 0.01). Matched cohorts of 224 COVID-19-positive and 224 COVID-19-negative children did not differ by demographic or clinical factors (P > 0.05). Propensity score matching did not reveal significant differences in postoperative morbidity or mortality. Children with COVID-19 did not demonstrate increased odds of morbidity analyzed as a composite outcome (odds ratio: 0.65, 95% confidence interval: 0.29-1.48, P = 0.31).
CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to findings in adults, COVID-19 was not associated with worse clinical outcomes in children undergoing emergency abdominal surgery.
