Abstract
- 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 January 1 to September 1, 2020. Thromboelastography (TEG) with platelet mapping was performed in 19 (63%) patients and compared to age- and gender- matched controls via Student’s t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test. Pearson’s and Spearman correlation were used to assess relationships between TEG parameters and inflammatory markers. Results: Patients with MIS-C had abnormal TEG results compared to controls, including decreased K time (1.1 vs. 1.7 min, P
