Asymptomatic COVID-19 Infection in a Child with Nasal Foreign Body	2020-05-08		.txt	text/plain	1914	104	40	Aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 viral particles have been shown to remain viable for up to 3 hours 10 , raising concern about risk of exposure for healthcare workers during aerosol generating procedures (APGs), including endoscopy, in the nasal cavity, nasopharynx and upper airway. Prior to bringing the patient to the operating room, COVID-19 testing was pursued given concerns about the potential for asymptomatic infection in the pediatric population, and generation of aerosolized respiratory secretions during nasal endoscopy, suctioning and foreign body removal, in order to optimize protection of the perioperative care team and surgical staff. Preoperative planning and SARS-CoV2 testing is of particular importance for the pediatric population given the high proportion of SARS-CoV-2 infected children who are asymptomatic or exhibit minimal symptoms of COVID-19, but who may harbor significant viral loads in the nasopharynx and upper airway, placing healthcare workers at particular risk.	./cache/cord-335347-vxl2flbn.txt	./txt/cord-335347-vxl2flbn.txt
