Keep a high index of suspicion for kids with rapid deterioration, hemodynamic instability, KD like features, non-remitting course. We at least get Covid antibodies done of any of the above features are present. If they are significantly raised, we send the rest of panel which in our setup includes D-dimers, LDH and ferritin.
