Answer: Agree with the post by the other physician. The antibiotics are simply to cover the possibility that Scarlet Fever is the issue (caused by streptococcus). A rapid response to antibiotics would tend to help to rule out the Kawasaki's Disease also.

Does KAWASAKI DISEASE have anything to do with children vaccines?

since this is mostly common in children, Im wondering if it could be a side effect from any vaccine. Is there a study that shows any particular age? any particular activity in common ? thanks for the response! my concern is because they have made it mandatory that all teens have to have whopping cough vaccine.
Answer: Doesn't look like there is any link. "Kawasaki disease After Vaccination: Reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System 1990-2007" Conclusions: Our review does not suggest an elevated KD risk for RotaTeq or other vaccines. Continued postmarketing monitoring for KD is ongoing. Source: http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/712565 "Lack of association of Kawasaki disease after immunization in a cohort of infants followed for multiple autoimmune diagnoses in a large, phase-4 observational database safety study of 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine: lack of association between Kawasaki disease and seven-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine." A large-scale, postmarketing observational database safety study was conducted following 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) licensure. A secondary outcome was the occurrence of predefined diagnoses among PCV7 vaccinees versus historic controls. Forty-two PCV7 recipients and 17 controls were hospitalized for Kawasaki disease (P = 0.012). After adjusting for potential confounding variables, this difference was not significant (P = 0.083). No association between Kawasaki disease and PCV7 was found. Source: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19319016

Can KAWASAKI DISEASE cause death in young child if left untreated?

My cousin just passed away a couple of weeks ago from breast cancer --- and now her young baby whos merely 1 yr and 8 months was recently diagnosed with Kawasaki disease :( They live in the 3rd world country (in the Philippines) and they dont have health insurance nor enough funds for medication required to cure this disease and hospitalization... I see that main problem for this disease is the formation of clot in the artery that could lead to aneurism if not treated. Can they get treatment via OTC meds such as aspiriin ?
Answer: I am a physician. Disregard the other statements saying not to take aspirin. Kawasaki is one of the few childhood diseases that is treated with high dose aspirin. However, another component of treatment is IVIG, which is given at the hospital or a clinic. I'm unclear on how the disease was properly diagnosed without advanced techniques. Either way, it can be fatal (not commonly) if there concern about coronary artery involvement. There should be facilities in the Phillippines that can offer proper treatment.

Anyone familiar with the differences in KAWASAKI DISEASE and autism? Is one easily treated with meds vs the?

other not? It sounds like J Travoltas son with a round the clock nanny, baby monitor and bathroom door that chimed when opened, he was either very sick or not safe on his own or both?
Answer: my daugher had Kawasaki disease. it has nothing to do with autism. it is NOT characterized by seizures. it is a temporary condition characterized by vasculitis - which is basically an inflammation of veins and arteries. the sickness lasted in my daughter for about 2 weeks when she was three and then it was over. we've had to have her heart checked once a year for any abnormalities, but that is it... and her case was very very severe (she barely survived). and no, it is not easily treated. they basically treat the symptoms with a series of immune deficiency drugs and maybe some others (depending on the symptoms) and hope for the best, but cannot treat the cause since they don't know what that is. autism as far as i know is a disorder that is not temporary like kawasaki. the things you're mentioning about the travoltas sounds more like worry over seizures or behavior (as with autism). they would do nothing in helping a kid who had had kawasaki. the only thing that would apply to helping a kid who had kawasaki would be to have a constant heart monitor since the only known long term affects are heart defects from severe stress from the sickness at such a young age.

What is KAWASAKI DISEASE, and their signs and symptoms?

I just heard of this kind of disease that killed young children, i just want to know whats the symptoms for early prevention.
Answer: Kawasaki disease is an uncommon childhood illness that causes inflammation of the blood vessels. It most commonly affects children ages 18 to 24 months; it is less commonly seen in people older than age 8. It tends to be severe for several days, but then most children return to normal activities. After your child gets better, the doctor will usually watch him or her for heart problems. The disease is not contagious and occurs most often in the late winter and early spring. What causes Kawasaki disease? Although a specific cause has not yet been identified, researchers suspect Kawasaki disease may be related to a virus or bacteria. What are the symptoms? Symptoms of Kawasaki disease include: * A fever lasting at least 5 days. * Red eyes. * A body rash. * Swollen, red lips and tongue. * Swollen, red feet and hands. * Swollen lymph nodes in the neck. How is Kawasaki disease diagnosed? Kawasaki disease can be difficult to diagnose. Although there is no specific test for Kawasaki disease, a diagnosis can be made if a child has a fever that lasts at least 5 days and also has 4 of the 5 other symptoms listed above. Less often, a diagnosis is made when a child has a fever that has lasted at least 5 days, two other symptoms from the list above, and some damage to the heart (coronary artery disease). How is it treated? Treatment for Kawasaki disease may include medicine given through a vein (intravenous, or IV, medicine) called immunoglobulin (IVIG) to reduce inflammation of the blood vessels, aspirin therapy to lower the risk of blood clots, and possibly blood thinners (anticoagulants) to prevent new blood clots. Is Kawasaki disease serious? Most children with Kawasaki disease get better and have no long-term effects, even if they do not receive treatment. However, treatment shortens the illness and greatly reduces the chances of having problems from Kawasaki disease. About 20% of children who are not treated will have problems in the arteries that supply blood to the heart (coronary artery disease). Weakened coronary arteries may get enlarged or can narrow or develop blood clots. In very rare cases, this can lead to a heart attack. The risk of heart attack is greatest within 1 year after the illness. However, studies in Japan indicate that children who develop coronary artery damage are more prone to having a heart attack as young adults.

Are there any diseases that appear to be KAWASAKI DISEASE but is actually something else?

Ok. So my 7 month old nephew has been in the hospital over a week now. He was originally diagnosed with Kawasaki disease. However, after 2 transfusions, nothing has changed. I thought most kids showed improvement after a few days? The doctors are now saying its NOT Kawasaki and that its some type of virus. He has now been put on steroids. At this point, it may just be time to have him admitted to another hospital. Help!!!!
Answer: There is no one test to detect Kawasaki disease, so a doctor typically diagnoses it by evaluating the child's symptoms and ruling out other conditions. Typically, a child who is diagnosed with this illness will have a fever lasting 5 or more days and at least 4 of the following symptoms: redness in both eyes changes around the lips, tongue, or mouth changes in the fingers and toes, such as swelling, discoloration, or peeling a rash in the trunk or genital area a large swollen lymph node in the neck red, swollen palms of hands and soles of feet If Kawasaki disease is suspected, a doctor may order tests to monitor the child's heart function, which can include an echocardiogram, and other tests of heart function. A doctor may also take blood and urine samples to rule out other conditions, such as scarlet fever, measles, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and an allergic drug reaction. Doctors can manage the symptoms of Kawasaki disease if they catch it early. The symptoms typically disappear within just two days of when treatment begins. Usually, if Kawasaki disease is treated within 10 days of when the first symptoms begin, no heart problems develop. But if the illness goes untreated (time period can vary, but likely for 10-14 days and sooner in young infants), it can lead to more serious complications that involve the child's heart. Kawasaki disease can lead to vasculitis, which is an inflammation of the blood vessels. This can be particularly dangerous because it can affect the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart. In addition to the coronary arteries, the heart muscle, lining, valves, or the outer membrane that surrounds the heart can become inflamed. Arrhythmias (changes in the normal pattern of the heartbeat) or abnormal functioning of some heart valves can also occur. Treatment should begin as soon as possible, ideally within 10 days of when the fever first begins. Usually, a child is treated with intravenous doses of gamma globulin (purified antibodies), an ingredient of blood that helps the child's body fight off infection. The child may also be given a high-dose of aspirin to reduce the risk of heart problems. Whether or not your nephew is receiving the correct treatment, I cannot say. Since the only " test" for Kawasaki disease is to rule out other diseases, it seems the doctors would have eliminated all others by now and know what they were dealing with. Best of luck to your nephew. .

It looked like KAWASAKI DISEASE but Dr. insisted it was a staph infection. How can I be sure he was right?

blood tests found nothing abnormal with her platlettes but all the other symtoms of Kawasaki were there. We got a 2nd opinion but the appointment was made by the first doctor and by the time we were seen the crisis was over regardless of diagnosis and i wonder if the 2nd Dr. would cover for him if he was wrong since we were beyond the need for intervention. I also wonder, if it was Kawasaki if there are any preventive measures I need to take in the future. Are there any disease experts out there that can help?
Answer: Hi we know how you feel, we were told at the time it was POSSIBLY staph infection,three bouts of antibiotics later still not better the family doctor phoned the hospital that released our daughter, were told to keep a close eye on her and told to come back in 5 weeks for her third heart scan. After the heart scan that was all clear THANK GOD we were than told he the specialist was not sure now if she had ,Kawasaki disease or post streptococcal vasculitus, but swaying towards Kawasaki..... the good thing she has had no ill effects other than emotional problems but they say that could be her age as well (3) hang in there its a terrible time but before you know it, your child will be running around crazy

Does anyone have a child with KAWASAKI DISEASE?

My nephew (9 months old) was just diagnosed with Kawasaki disease today. At first I thought it was a mistake because the only Kawasaki that Ive ever heard of was the motorcycle. Anyway, Im just wondering if anyone has a child that has gone through this before. My sister in-law is a nervous wreck, so I just want to provide her with as much info as possible. Much thanks. I guess the reason that there is so much concern is because theyre saying hes going to need some type of transfusion (which is a 12 hr procedure from what were told). Does that mean that the disease is advanced?
Answer: Hi our daughter had it last year , by the time she was diagnosed she was too late for the treatment, but she did come out the other end with no heart problems, and a year later she is just fine, she was 3 when she was diagnosed and yes it is a very worrying time. but as it is a rare disease they will or should bring in a specialist in infectious diseases. even though its not infectious. the children that are caught in time and have the iv treatment generally so a doctor told us you can sit them and watch them regain their health. we were not so lucky as she missed the window for iv treatment. but as i said before she is fighting fit now. just a few emotional problems. good luck and hope it is a speedy recovery

Answer: Our patient had a persistent fever despite antibiotic treatment. During the first few days of her fever, she had no typical physical findings suggestive of Kawasaki disease except for an erythema and induration of her BCG vaccination site, which led us to the suspicion of Kawasaki disease on the third day of illness. During follow up, she developed three of the five specific clinical findings suggestive of incomplete Kawasaki disease in addition to her persistent fever, increased acute phase reactants, and sterile pyuria, which is seen in 33 % of Kawasaki disease patients.7 With early diagnosis and treatment, prompt resolution of her symptoms occurred without any sequela involving coronary arteries. http://www.vaccinetruth.org/kawasaki_disease.htm
