Screening per rilevare il maltrattamento in un ambiente ospedaliero pediatrico

Abstract

Old and new myocarditis This month’s article allows us to revisit a topic - myocarditis - that has recently come to the attention of pediatricians during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, both in its form with acute myocardial damage and as part of the post-Covid systemic inflammatory manifestations that identify MIS-C (multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children). It is also an opportunity to analyze the most frequent viral causes of acute myocarditis in children, the distinctive elements with myocarditis related to SARS-CoV-2 infection and how MIS-C may represent a possible link between acute myocarditis and Kawasaki disease.
