Effectiveness of Preoperative Symptom Screening in Identifying Pediatric SARS-CoV-2 Infections: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis

Preoperative symptom screenings insufficiently identified COVID-19 (+) patients. During outbreaks, testing protocols should be implemented to identify COVID-19 (+) patients. Future research should examine if observations are similar for other variants, and how health disparities associate with COVID-19.
