ABSTRACT: Objective: To understand the application of echocardiography combined with blood SAA, IL-6, PCT, and CRP detection in the diagnosis and
treatment of Kawasaki disease in children. Methods: 56 children with
Kawasaki disease were selected as the study subjects as the treatment group,
and 54 children with other diseases during the same period were selected as the
control group. Echocardiography, blood SAA, IL-6, PCT and CRP were detected
before and after treatment to observe the results of the two groups. A database
was established to compare the changes of various indicators between the two
groups, as well as the application value of each indicator in the clinical
diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease, and the pros and cons of the
application of each indicator in the diagnosis and treatment of children with
Kawasaki disease were analyzed, so as to
provide a clearer early warning mechanism for the clinical diagnosis and
treatment of children with Kawasaki disease. Results: There was no
significant difference in the results of related imaging indexes in the control
group before and after treatment (P > 0.05). There was no significant
difference in the results of relevant imaging indicators in the treatment group
before and after treatment (P > 0.05), except for LMCA (P 0.05), all other indicators had
statistical significance (P significant (P and after
treatment in the treatment group were statistically significant (P 0.05), the differences in all other
indicators were statistically significant (P Conclusion: The
combination of echocardiography with blood SAA, IL-6, PCT, and CRP detection
can establish the optimal evaluation plan for accurate and effective diagnosis,
treatment, and prognosis of Kawasaki disease in children, providing more
accurate and reliable diagnostic and treatment methods and laboratory data for clinical practice, and thus providing strong
protection for children’s health.
