Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the risk factors for children with incomplete Kawasaki disease(IKD) to decrease the development of coronary artery lesions (CAL).MethodsAll children diagnosed as IKD from Jan.2005 to Apr.2011 in our department were reviewed retrospectively for their clinical data,laboratory values and treatment measures.ResultsEight of the children (8/36,22.2％ ) were positive for CAL.The count of white blood cell( WBC),count of platelet(PLT),hematocrit and C reactive protein(CRP) level were ( 18.36 ± 4.63) × 109/L,(450.30 ± 155.40) × 109/L,( 25.63 ± 3.53 ),( 18.30 ± 3.80) mg/L and ( 13.48 ±3.27) × 109/L,(350.60 ± 56.80) × 109/L,( 33.78 ± 2.24 ),(9.70 ± 2.50) mg/L in the CAL group and non-CAL group respectively.And there were significant differences on the four indexes between CAL group and non-CAL group ( t =2.58,2.65,2.73,2.48,respectively,P ＜ 0.05 ).Pyretolysis time of children first undergoing globulin treatment was (2.5 ± 1.5 ) d and ( 1.5 ± 1.0 ) d in children under 1-year old and those above l-year old respectively,and the difference was significant ( t =2.35,P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionCAL should be cautiously prevented in IKD infants under l-year old with a fever lasting for over 5 days,decreased hematocrit and elevated WBC count,PLT count,Hct and CRP.Infant IKD patients are not so sensitive to intravenous gamma globulin and tend to occur CAL.They should be given an early diagnosis and timely treatment.
