We present data on the hospitalisations of children aged 0\u201314 years for acute rheumatic fever (ARF) during the period 2000\u20132020, and the early stages of the COVID\u201019 pandemic to May 2021. Persistent inequity by ethnicity and by socioeconomic deprivation was observed, particularly for Pacific children, for M\u0101ori children, and for children living in the most deprived areas (NZDep quintile 5). The government implemented a programme to prevent rheumatic fever between July 2012 and June 2017. Hospitalisation data suggest that the programme was reducing the incidence of ARF in children, but this trend was not sustained. There was minimal change to the number of hospitalisations for ARF during early period of the COVID\u201019 pandemic. If untreated, ARF can cause chronic rheumatic heart disease. The persistently high rates of hospitalisations and the unequal burden of disease for vulnerable groups should no longer be tolerated, since they can be effectively addressed by implementation of evidence\u2010based strategies to prevent, treat, and control this disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1080\/03036758.2022.2113102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,18]],"date-time":"2022-08-18T08:42:13Z","timestamp":1660812133000},"page":"631-640","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/tandf_crossmark_01","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["State of child health: acute rheumatic fever in Aotearoa New Zealand"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"53","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2300-1781","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Glenda","family":"Oben","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Te Ratonga M\u0101tai Tahumaero Taitamariki o Aotearoa\u2014New Zealand Child and Youth Epidemiology Service Department of Women's and Children's Health University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3845-2961","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mavis","family":"Duncanson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Te Ratonga M\u0101tai Tahumaero Taitamariki o Aotearoa\u2014New Zealand Child and Youth Epidemiology Service Department of Women's and Children's Health University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0378-2231","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Judith","family":"Adams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Te Ratonga M\u0101tai Tahumaero Taitamariki o Aotearoa\u2014New Zealand Child and Youth Epidemiology Service Department of Women's and Children's Health University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tara","family":"Satyanand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cure Kids Auckland New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jpc.15601"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","first-page":"1366","article-title":"Developing a tool to monitor potentially avoidable and ambulatory care sensitive hospitalisations in New Zealand children","volume":"126","author":"Anderson P","year":"2012","journal-title":"New Zealand Medical Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jpc.15514"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3201\/eid2701.191791"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","volume-title":"Child and youth wellbeing strategy","author":"Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet","year":"2019"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.lanwpc.2021.100162"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jpc.15551"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","volume-title":"Rheumatic fever in New Zealand: annual report July 2014 to June 2015","author":"Galloway Y","year":"2017"},{"issue":"1329","key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","first-page":"6","article-title":"Persistent rheumatic fever in New Zealand\u2013a shameful indicator of child health","volume":"124","author":"Hale M","year":"2011","journal-title":"New Zealand Medical Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/dyy150"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jech.2009.107441"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1754.2008.01384.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(18)30999-1"},{"issue":"1416","key":"e_1_2_9_15_1","first-page":"6","article-title":"An important investment to control acute rheumatic fever needs to run its course","volume":"128","author":"Lennon D","year":"2015","journal-title":"New Zealand Medical Journal"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_16_1","volume-title":"HISO 10001:2017 ethnicity data protocols","author":"Ministry of Health","year":"2017"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_17_1","unstructured":"Ministry of Health.2019.National Minimum Dataset (hospital events).[updated 29\u00a0May 2019;
