Summary
This study evaluates the efficacy of the addition of prednisolone to conventional initial treatment (intravenous immunoglobulin [IVIG] plus aspirin) in reducing coronary artery lesion in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) .
Description
This is a multicenter, open-label, blind-endpoints, randomized controlled trial at more than 10 hospitals in China. The investigators enrolled KD children diagnosed within 10 days of onset. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the control group (receiving 2g/kg IVIG and 30 mg/kg aspirin) or the intervention group (receiving 2 g/kg IVIG, 30 mg/kg aspirin and additional 2 mg/kg prednisolone). Baseline characteristics of each participant will be collected, including sex, age of onset, height, body weight, subtype of KD, fever days before initial IVIG, echocardiographic findings at enrolment, and a series of pre-IVIG laboratory tests. Two-dimensional echocardiography will be performed at admission, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months，and 12 months after onset of KD to assess the coronary artery lesions.
