These infections, even when mild, interfere with blood glucose control. The aim of this review is to describe infections that occur in children and adolescents with DM, as well as to provide recommendations on glycemia management during these episodes.</p></div><div><h3>Source of data</h3><p>A non‐systematic review was carried out in the PubMed database, using the terms “diabetes mellitus,” “infection,” “children,” and “adolescents.” The most relevant publications were selected.</p></div><div><h3>Synthesis of data</h3><p>In addition to the usual community diseases, some infections may occur predominantly in diabetic patients, especially when there is inadequate glycemic control, and common infections can be more severe in these patients. Alterations caused by the disease itself and the immune response are responsible for the risk of higher frequency and severity of infections. During infections, an increase in blood glucose occurs and usually an increase in insulin dose is required.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Pediatric patients with diabetes have some immune system disorders that, when associated with high glycemia, increase the risk of infections and their severity, and should be promptly identified and treated. The presence of an infectious condition, in turn, raises blood glucose and increases the risk of decompensation, and pediatricians should be cautioned to intensify monitoring and insulin therapy, and to avoid the risk of DKA. It should also be noted that many infections are preventable and can be avoided with adequate vaccine coverage.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100742,"journal":{"name":"Jornal de Pediatria (Vers?o em Português)","volume":"96 ","pages":"Pages 39-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.jpedp.2019.09.004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"137132041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Brazil, microbiological screening is recommended, but the use of the scoring system, modified in 2019, has been maintained. Studies on infection detection have supported the use of the tuberculin skin test.

Follow‐up of shock treatment should adhere to targets such as restoring vital and clinical signs of shock and controlling the focus of infection.
