Kawasaki Disease Criteria Mnemonic

RCH website too

A

CRASH + Burn
Burn
- Fever for 5+ days + 4/5 of:

Conjunctivitis (mostly nonexudative bilat injection)
Rash (polymorphous, EMlike, scarlatiniform, macular)
Adenopathy (one node >1.5cm)
Strawberry tongue + Lip Erythema/fissuring
Hand/Feet swelling +/- desquamation in convalescence

**can have fewer than 4/5 if if coronary artery abnormalities are present.

Common findings outside the diagnostic criteria include irritibility arthritis, aseptic meningitis, sterile pyuria and dysuria.

KD is the second most common vasculitis in childhood after Henoch Schonlein purpura, and is the most commoncause of acquired heart disease in children in developed countries causing coronary artery aneurysms (CAA).
