Conditions associated with the worsening of COVID-19 in children and adolescents: scoping review protocol

Abstract

Objective: To map the available scientific knowledge about the conditions associated with the worsening of the COVID-19 situation in children and adolescents. Method: This is a protocol of a scoping review based on the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology. The following databases were chosen: MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), LILACS via Virtual Health Library (BVS), and Google Scholar. Two independent reviewers will carry out the search. The retrieval of references will take place in three steps according to the Joanna Briggs Institute recommendations. Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) descriptors and Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) will be used. The mapping tool suggested by the adopted reference will be used to extract the results. The results will be presented according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR).
