  ABSTRACT: Aim: To explore the research progress of echocardiography combined with blood-related detection indicators in the diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease in children. By collecting relevant literature reports, echocardiography and several blood-related detection indicators such as SAA, IL-6, PCT and CRP were screened out. It has good clinical application value in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease in children, but there is no report on the application of echocardiography combined with blood SAA, IL-6, PCT and CRP detection in the diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease in children. The author intends to explore the role of echocardiography combined with blood SAA, IL-6, PCT and CRP detection in the diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease in children, hoping to achieve better results.
