Abstract
No therapies for acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been tested in children to establish effectiveness. Despite this, across 48 hospitals, 235/424 children (55%) admitted to the intensive care or step-down unit with COVID-19 received directed therapies. Systemic steroids and remdesivir were most commonly administered, with use rising from March 2020 to December 2020.
