Introduction: Infant and child morbidity and mortality constitute a public health problem in Africa, particularly in Senegal. The objective of this work was to help identify the determinants this morbidity and mortality. Materials and Methods: A prospective study, over a 4-month period (January to April 2020). All patients aged 0 to 15 years, hospitalized for emergency reasons in the Albert Royer emergency department, were included. Mortality was analyzed according to sociodemographic data, the patient’s itinerary, transfer procedures, availability of emergency medications, diagnosis made during hospitalization and causes of death. The data were collected based on a protocol in an established file and analyzed by SPSS (Statistical Package for Science Social) software. Version 18. Results: 225 children in emergency situations were included. The age of our patients is between 0 and 15 years (minimum 0.23 months, maximum 191 months, average 47 months and standard deviation 54). Thus, emergencies represented 57.98% of the 388 hospitalizations. Seventy percent of patients were less than 60 months old with a male predominance (sex ratio 1.16), 2.22% were newborns and 27.11% were aged between 60 and 191 months). A total of 79 (35.1%) were transferred and only 57.4% received care before transfer. A total of 12 deaths were reported, representing a lethality of 5.3%. Only young age (less than 59 months, a mortality rate of 91.7%), cardiac decompensations, severe sepsis, and neonatal conditions were more associated with mortality. The majority of our deceased patients came from families with a low socio-economic level (83.3%). Conclusion: Pediatric emergencies are frequent and responsible for lethality and require the necessary efforts, particularly through parent education, the creation of emergency outpatient care units and, above all, the strengthening of the technical platform and therapeutic means.

Introduction: COVID-19, an emerging infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), typically presents with mild clinical manifestations in pediatric populations. As in many other regions of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), the COVID-19 pandemic affected children in Haut-Uélé, a province bordering South Sudan and Uganda. This study aimed to describe the epidemiological profile of COVID-19 in pediatric population in this area. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted over a 6-month period from August 1, 2021 to February 7, 2022. It included all patients aged 0 to 19 years with confirmed COVID-19 using RT-PCR and managed at the COVID-19 Treatment Centers (CTCO) in ISIRO and WATSA. Data were collected from patient records supplemented by the dataset from the service of Health Information System (SNIS) and the Epidemiological Surveillance Commission of the Provincial Health Division (DPS). Epidemiological and clinical profiles were analyzed. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS software, Version 18. Results: During the 4th wave of the pandemic, 5 out of 13 health zones in Haut-Uélé province were affected, with a total of 569 recorded cases;45 of them were children aged 0 to 19 years (7.9%). Asymptomatic cases accounted for 33.3% (15 cases). The mean age was 9.88 ± 5.49 years, with the most affected age group being 10 - 14 years (44.45%). There was a predominance of males (73.3%), with a male-to-female sex ratio of 2.75. Half of the patients (53.3%) were from Watsa Health Zone. A seasonal peak was observed between December and January. Comorbidities were present in 10% of infected patients, and nearly half of participants were contacts of infected individuals. The primary reasons for admission were fever (66.66%), followed by rhinorrhea (57.77%) and cough (31.11%). All patients responded favorably to treatment. Conclusion: The proportion of pediatric COVID-19 cases at t

Background: Pediatric emergencies are a public health priority in Senegal. The objective was to describe the epidemiology of admissions to the emergency department of the Albert Royer National Children’s Hospital in Dakar, Senegal. Methods: Prospective, descriptive and analytical study over a period of 4 months (January-April 2020). The study population was children admitted for vital distress. Results: A total of 300 children met the inclusion criteria and represented the study population (2.83%). The majority (70.67%) were younger than 60 months, compared with 2.00% of newborns. Boys represented 53.8%, sex ratio 1.16. A proportion of 35.1% was referred. More than half of our patients (55.88%) were managed within 30 minutes of arrival. Medicalized transport concerned 21.5% against 78.5% of nonmedicalized. Emergencies were dominated by respiratory distress (56.33%), dehydration (29%) and shock (13.33%). We recorded 16 deaths (5.3%). This mortality was significantly related to the low socio-economic level (p = 0.000), as well as the young age of the children (p = 0.01). Conclusion: Life-threatening emergencies are frequent and responsible for significant lethality. Health policy efforts are still needed to reduce this infant and child morbidity and mortality.
