Abstract

Objective To explore and analyze the clinical manifestations and diagnostic methods of pediatric incomplete Kawasaki disease so as to further improve the clinical diagnostic accuracy of the disease, and avoid delays in treatment and the occurrence of adverse events. Methods 350 cases of children with Kawasaki disease treated in our hospital during January, 2010 to January, 2013 were selected as the research object, including 86 cases of incomplete Kawasaki disease and 264 cases of typical Kawasaki disease. The differences of clinical manifestations and echocardiogram of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results It was found that the clinical manifestations of incomplete Kawasaki disease were significantly lower than those of typical Kawasaki disease by comparative analysis, and the difference was statistically significant(P0.05); the rate of arteritis involving coronary arteries of typical Kawasaki disease was significantly lower than that of atypical Kawasaki disease, the difference was also statistically significant(P0.05). Conclusion The clinical symptoms of children with incomplete Kawasaki disease are atypical, and the rate of arteritis involving coronary arteries significantly increases, so the early diagnosis and treatment should be achieved as soon as possible.
