Shades of Crimson: Inflammation in Acquired Pediatric Critical Cardiomyopathy

Bonus Session Available in Congress Digital
Location: Congress Digital
CE: 1.0

This session will compare and contrast the inflammatory pathophysiology and treatment of acquired cardiomyopathy and associated cardiogenic shock associated with Kawasaki disease, multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) secondary to infection with COVID-19, and bacterial septic shock.

Learning Objectives:

  • Review the pathophysiology and treatment of cardiogenic shock associated with Kawasaki disease
  • Discuss the postulated pathophysiology and treatment of cardiogenic shock associated with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C)
  • Discuss the pathophysiology of cardiogenic shock as a key aspect of septic shock among children with sepsis
  • Compare and contrast acquired cardiomyopathy associated with Kawasaki disease, MIS-C, and classic pediatric septic shock

Presentations:

  • Inflammatory Pathophysiology and Treatment of Acquired Cardiomyopathy Kawasaki Disease
  • Inflammatory Pathophysiology and Treatment of Acquired Cardiomyopathy in MIS-C
  • Inflammatory Pathophysiology and Treatment of Acquired Cardiomyopathy Associated With Pediatric Septic Shock
