Summary: | The current epidemiological context unveils an unprecedented situation as far as arterial
hypertension in pediatric patients is concerned, as it has a different impact upon them, mainly because of their
individual particularities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, between 01.03.2020-01.03.2021, hospital

hypertension in pediatric patients admitted to the cardiology ward of “Sf Ioan” Clinical Emergency Hospital
for Children in Galati, over the above metioned time frame. |
