Paediatric multisystem inflammatory syndrome: temporally associated with
SARS-COV-2 (PIMS-TS) is a well described rare but severe COVID-19
related syndrome. PIMS-TS have been reported in children from
geographical areas of high COVID-19 infection. Most children with
PIMS-TS require management in an intensive care unit with variable
respiratory involvement. Adults recovering from COVID-19 infection have
been reported to suffer from respiratory morbidity but such outcomes are
unknown in children. We present the first report of normal short term
respiratory outcomes as measured by spirometry in children with
SARS-COV-2 antibody positive, PIMS-TS syndrome managed at a specialist
children’s hospital in the UK.
