Diagnosis

Diagnostic Criteria

In May 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) set the criteria for multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C):[1]

  • Severe disease course leading to hospitalization
  • Individuals younger than 21 years old
  • Fever (body temperature, >38.0°C) or report of subjective fever present at least 24 hours
  • Laboratory evidence of inflammation
  • Multisystem organ involvement (at least two systems)
  • Laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection

History and Symptoms

Physical Examination

Laboratory Findings

Blood Investigations

Inflammatory biomarkers

Elevation of inflammatory markers including ESR, C reactive protein, and procalcitonin are usually seen in MIS-C. Increased level of Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-10(IL-10) d-dimer, serum ferritin, prothrombin time have also been seen in MIS-C.

Cardiac biomarkers

Elevation of cardic enzymes including cardiac troponins (cardiac troponin I(cTnI) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT)) and Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)) has been observed in MIS-C patients.

Radiological Findings

  • Following Radiological Findings are observed in MIS-C patients.
Test Findings
Chest Xray patchy symmetrical infiltrates, pleural effusion
Echocardiogram and EKG myocarditis, valvulitis, pericardial effusion, coronary artery dilatation
Abdominal USG colitis, ileitis, lymphadenopathy, ascites, hepatosplenomegaly

Blood Culture, Viral PCR

  • Absence of other potential causative organisms. IgG levels and IgM levels of SARS-CoV-2 are detected.

Treatment

Medical Therapy

  • All the children with MIS-C are treated as suspected COVID-19.
  • Mild to Moderate cases of MIS-C are managed supportively.[3][4]
  • Supplemental oxygen is required in children with low oxygen saturation.[4]
  • Fluid resuscitation in 10 ml/kg aliquots with reevaluation after each bolus. Maintain euvolemia. Avoid hypervolemia.[4]
  • Anti-inflammatory treatments with Intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG) with or without corticosteroids have shown a good response rate.[3][4]
  • Aspirin has been used primarily for its antiplatelet effect. It is recommended in all patients with MIS-C.[3][4]
  • Anakinra is considered if fevers last more than 24 hours post steroids/IVIG or in the moderate or severe presentation.[3][4]
  • Tocilizumab is also considered if fevers last more than 24 hours post steroids/IVIG or in the moderate or severe presentation.[3][4]
  • Empiric antibiotics like vancomycin, ceftriaxone, and clindamycin are given for community-acquired shock presentation until cultures are negative for 48 hours.[3][4]
Presentation Treatment
Mild Disease
  • Symptomatic Treatment
Severe Disease

Prevention of MIS-C

  • MIS-C can be prevented by reducing the risk of child exposure to COVID-19 infection.
