Abstract:
This presentation will review the history of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) including the multiple terms that have been used for it since it was first described.  We will discuss the proposed pathophysiology for MIS-C as well as the core treatment options including the indications for both systemic anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy.  The presentation will also review the current outcomes in these patients both short and longer term.
