Brief Summary
A case-control cohort study is being conducted to develop and validate the performance of a whole blood gene expression qPCR test to distinguish KD from other febrile conditions by collecting whole blood sample from KD patients in the first 7 days of illness and from febrile controls immediately after presentation and before clinical diagnosis is confirmed.
