Multicenter Validation of a Machine Learning Algorithm for Diagnosing Pediatric Patients with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome and Kawasaki Disease

Abstract: Multisystem 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 illnesses. We present KIDMATCH (… Show more

“…O diagnóstico é baseado na evidência de inflamação sistêmica (por exemplo, febre) em associação com sinais de inflamação mucocutânea. A conjuntivite bilateral não exsudativa característica, eritema dos lábios e da mucosa oral, erupção cutânea, alterações nas extremidades e linfadenopatia cervical geralmente se desenvolvem após um breve pródromo inespecífico de sintomas respiratórios ou gastrointestinais (Emeksiz et al, 2021;Lam et al, 2022).…”

“…Atualmente, sabemos que PIMS-TS ou SIM-P podem apresentar sintomas clínicos variáveis, incluindo febre, diarreia e erupção cutânea, dificultando a diferenciação de outras doenças e síndromes febris. Como é importante reconhecer e tratar prontamente essas crianças que podem se deteriorar rapidamente e exigir monitoramento de terapia intensiva (Falqueto et al, 2022;Lam et al, 2022).…”

“…Patients are at higher risk of developing myocarditis with acute heart failure and may require longer time in the hospital and admittance to an intensive care unit. Recently, Lam Y et al [39] proposed an algorithm (KIDMATCH) for screening patients for MIS-C, KD, or other febrile illness. Many treatment protocols recommend using IVIG and aspirin with/without GCS as first-line therapy.…”

“…Additional literature dedicated toward describing and distinguishing MIS‐C is expanding rapidly in both volume and complexity ( 1 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ). Machine learning methods have been used by Geva et al ( 18 ) to group patients hospitalized with COVID‐19‐related illness into phenotypic clusters with varying likelihood of MIS‐C and by Lam et al ( 20 ) to assign risk scores for MIS‐C and KD.…”
