An Algorithmic Approach to Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children with COVID-19: Tehran Children’s Medical Center Protocol

摘要

: COVID-19 as a viral infection is usually asymptomatic in children, but complication of this disease in children is not rare and may be fatal. Hyper inflammation of COVID-19 is a potential fatal in undiagnosed children. It is very similar to Kawasaki disease but with higher mortality and morbidity. Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and multi-organ involvement was reported in hyper inflammation syndrome following COVID19. Herein we report our algorithmic approach to Kawasaki-like syndromes due to COVID-19 in our center. Based-on this approach we had no mortality during the last 5 months.
