Multi-inflammatory syndrome in children (multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C)) associated with COVID-19: a nursing perspective experience report from a high-income tertiary paediatric hospital context
Authors' conclusion
This study contributes knowledge to the ongoing nursing care of children suffering from MIS-C. The results show many different areas of nursing focus, which challenges nurses and other disciplines within paediatric hospital care. One important factor when caring for these children was the use of a central venous line early in the care process, which improved the quality of care.
