Document: INTRODUCTION Following an asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic Corona virus disease (COVID 19), otherwise healthy children, may develop serious manifestations in form of cardiac, neurological, respiratory, gastrointestinal and dermatologic dysfunction. Many such cases were being observed in Odisha, an eastern state of India and reported from different health care facilities. We related these unexplained serious manifestations to Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome associated with COVID 19 (MISC) and planned this study. METHODS This retrospective observational study was carried out in three tertiary care centres: Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, MKCG Medical college Berhampur and Jagannath Hospital, Bhubaneswar between July to September of year 2020. Study population include all children from 1 month to 15 years admitted to hospital with MISC according to WHO Diagnostic Criteria. All the data were analyzed by SPSS. RESULTS A total of 21 children were included in our study. Maximum number of cases were male (76.2%), predominate age group was 6 to 10 yrs (47.6%). Predominate symptoms /signs in our observation were fever, pain abdomen, seizure and hypotension. Most of these cases were positive for SARS CoV antibody (80.95%). Response to immunotherapy was dramatic. Mortality (9%) of our study is higher to 1.8 to 3% from western literature. None of our patient had coronary abnormality while 2 had mild cardiac dysfunction at discharge comparable to other studies. CONCLUSION MISC following exposure to COVID 19 infection in children is a clinical syndrome which needs early suspicion and appropriate intervention to prevent mortality.
