    Document: Respiratory symptoms are frequently observed in children with KD during the acute phase. 5)11) Jordan-Villegas et al. 12) reported that patients with KD who carry respiratory viruses more frequently showed coronary artery dilatation and were more often diagnosed with incomplete KD. Some studies 5)10)12) determined that specific respiratory viruses were associated with KD. However, other authors insisted that the detection of viruses in KD may not have any associative implications. 13) Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) may be a superior method to measure the Tei index in children because it is less affected by heart rate variability. 14) The myocardial performance index (Tei index) evaluates global left ventricle (LV) systolic and diastolic function. It is correlated with severity and clinical outcome in children with cardiac disease. 14) There haven't been any reports about an association between respiratory infection and cardiac function in KD patients.
