Some doctors are using convalescent plasma (CP) therapies to treat COVID-19 patients. However, whether CP therapy is effective for children with COVID-19 remains controversial. Therefore, this study further explores the effectiveness and safety of human coronavirus immune CP in the treatment of COVID-19 in children.
Methods: Comprehensively search the electronic databases such as the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and WanFang, and collect relevant documents. We will also look for other sources. All document sources will not be restricted by language and publication status. Two researchers will independently conduct research selection, data extraction and research quality assessment. RevMan 5.3 was used for statistical analysis.
Results: This study will provide high-quality comprehensive evidence for the effectiveness and safety of human coronavirus immuno CP in the treatment of COVID-19 in children CONCLUSIONS:: The results of this study will provide the basis for the effectiveness and safety of human coronavirus immuno CP treatment of COVID-19 in children.
