2019年12月以来，湖北省武汉市陆续出现2019新型冠状病毒（2019-nCoV）感染病例，疫情持续蔓延，全国其他地区及境外也相继发现了此类病例。少数病例病情进展快，出现急性呼吸窘迫综合征和/或多脏器功能衰竭而死亡。流行病学调查提示人群对2019-nCoV普遍易感，目前国内儿童感染确诊病例14例（年龄6个月~14岁，含武汉5例）。为进一步规范和加强儿童2019-nCoV感染的临床管理，降低发病率，减少重症病例发生，结合近期国内外资料，制定本诊疗建议。

Since December 2019, a cluster of patients have been diagnosed to be infected with 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) in Wuhan, China. The epidemic has been spreading to other areas of the country and abroad. A few cases have progressed rapidly to acute respiratory distress syndrome and/or multiple organ function failure. The epidemiological survey has indicated that the general population is susceptible to 2019-nCoV. A total of 14 children (6 months to 14 years of age, including 5 cases in Wuhan) have been confrmed to be infected with 2019-nCoV in China so far. In order to further standardize and enhance the clinical management of 2019-nCoV infection in children, reduce the incidence, and decrease the number of severe cases, we have formulated this diagnosis and treatment recommendation according to the recent information at home and abroad.
