Postanesthesia complications in pediatric patients with previous <scp>SARS‐CoV</scp>‐2 infection: A cohort study

Abstract

Postanesthesia complications are higher in children who undergo anesthesia within 7 days of SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. Additional cardiac risk may persist beyond the immediate period of initial diagnosis. Larger samples are needed to further evaluate the risk of delayed postanesthesia complications and guide optimal timing of surgery.
