Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has observed changes in the rates of hospitalization due to the mask, school closure, restrictions on the street. Our study was aimed at comparing child health and diseases department applications, triage, diagnosis distribution and residence rates with pre-pandemic. Methods: Between 11.03.2019-11.03.2021, the University Hospital of Health Sciences of Kütahya, 240,440 patients applying to the Department of Child Health were recurring. Patients were studied in two groups: Pre-Pandemic and Pre-Pandemic. The distribution of the diagnosis was assessed in October-November-December months. In comparison of category variables, the ki-quare test, multiple comparisons were analyzed with Bonferroni corrected Z-test. The level of importance is p<0,050. The ethical board has been approved for the work. Results: In the period of Pandemia, the annual application to the child disease department was reduced by 68.5 percent (p<0,001). In the period of pandemic, the child's health and diseases, endocrinology and newborn intensive care applications increased while the child's emergency, allergy, cardiology departments applications increased (p<0,001). Pre-pandemic respiratory infections, nausea, cough, fever diagnoses are high while in the pandemic period gastroenteritis, urinary system infections, headaches, constipation, urethra, newborn swelling have been shown to be high frequency (p<0,001). In the period of pandemic, the rate of infestation; infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates of infestation rates (p<0,001). There is no statistical difference between child and newborn intensive care annual mortality rates (p=1,00). It was analyzed that the application rate for the pre-pandemic green area was higher, while the application rate for the yellow and red area was higher during the pandemic period (p<0,001). In the period of pandemic, hospitalization rates declined significantly, while other respiratory infections were considered to be reduced due to the closure of masks and schools. It is also believed that measures and seasonal arrangements should be taken to reduce emergency service green space applications.
