Webinar Title: Updates on Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C): Epidemiology, Case Definition, and COVID-19 Vaccination
If you are unable to attend the live COCA Call, it will be available for viewing on the COCA website shortly after the live event ends.
Overview:
The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have developed a new multisystem inflammatory syndrome in Children (MIS-C) surveillance case definition to help reduce misclassification and complexity. This CDC/CSTE MIS-C surveillance case definition is based on an extensive review of data from 2020–2022. MIS-C is a rare, but severe condition that may occur 2-6 weeks after acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. The CDC has been actively involved in MIS-C surveillance, public health investigations, and development of resources to support the public health and healthcare community. The updated CSTE/CDC MIS-C case definition will become effective on January 1, 2023.
During this COCA Call, presenters will review MIS-C epidemiologic and clinical trends, provide a rationale and description of changes in criteria for the new CSTE/CDC MIS-C surveillance case definition compared with the 2020 CDC MIS-C case definition, and discuss information relating to MIS-C and COVID-19 vaccination.
