Protocol summary

Study aim
The effect of initial treatment with intravenous corticosteroid pulse on the prevention of coronary artery abnormality in children with kawasaki disease,possibility to replace steroid pulse as a cheap and inexpensive treatment rather than expensive medicine.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, one blind, randomized
Settings and conduct
After explaining to their parents and obtaining informed consent for treatment with IVIG or methylprednisolone pulse, patients are randomly assigned to two group: control group treatment with IVIG2g / kg, aspirin and intervention group treatment with intravenous puls of methyl prednisolone 30 mg /kg in three days and continue with oral prednisolone at a dose of 1 mg / kg for three days . Echocardiographist is not aware of the type of treatment.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Including criteria :1- age of 6 month to 5 years old 2-complete and incomplete Kawasaki disease definition according to AHA . Excluding criteria: complicated cases( MAS), recurrent Kawasaki, previous coronary artery abnormality , congestive heart failure, chronic renal failure, prednisolone sensitization, active viral infection of zoster, or Exposure to varicella in the past 21 days if not immunized, injecting oral, intravenous or muscular corticosteroid current> 3 days in the last 7 days, history of severe reaction to the preparation of any human globulin product, registration in another study possible It will affect the effects of treatment, effectiveness or follow-up.
Intervention groups
After entering the study, patients were randomly divided into two groups: IVIG2g / kg, aspirin and 3-day intravenous pulsomethyl prednisolone at a dose of 30mg / kg, and continued treatment with oral prednisolone 1mg / kg for 3 days.
Main outcome variables
fever duration, frequency of symptoms,mean CRP inflammatory factors,frequency of CAA,severity of CAA

General information

Reason for update
Modification of inclusion criteria With the highest prevalence of coronary involvement below the age of six months, the minimum age of inclusion criteria changed from one year to six months.
