Zusammenfassung: | Objective
To characterize viscoelastic testing profiles of children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS‐C).
Methods
This single‐center retrospective review included 30 patients diagnosed with MIS‐C from March 1 to September 1, 2020. Thromboelastography (TEG) with platelet mapping was performed in 19 (63%) patients and compared to age‐ and sex‐matched controls prior to cardiac surgery. Relationships between TEG parameters and inflammatory markers were assessed using correlation.
Results
Patients with MIS‐C had abnormal TEG results compared to controls, including decreased kinetic (K) time (1.1 vs. 1.7 minutes, p |
