BackgroundMultisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a novel disease identified during the COVID-19 pandemic characterized by systemic inflammation following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Delays in diagnosing MIS-C may lead to more severe disease with cardiac dysfunction or death. Most pediatric patients recover fully with anti-inflammatory treatments, but early detection of MIS-C remains a challenge given its clinical similarities to Kawasaki disease (KD) and other acute childhood illness...
