A nurse in the emergency department is assessing a toddler who has Kawasaki disease. Which

of the following findings should the nurse expect? (select all that apply.)

a. Increased temperature

b. Gingival hyperplasia

c. Xerophthalmia

d. Bradycardia

e. Cervical lymphadenopathy

Answer- a,c,e

Increased temperature is correct. Kawasaki disease is an acute illness associated with a fever

lasting more than 4 days that is unresponsive to antipyretics or antibiotics.

Gingival hyperplasia isincorrect. Children who have Kawasaki disease develop a strawberry

tongue, cracked lips, and edema of the oral mucosa and pharynx. A child who is receiving

phenytoin therapy can develop gingival hyperplasia.

Xerophthalmia is correct. Ophthalmic manifestations of Kawasaki disease include reddening of

the conjunctiva and dryness of the eyes, or xerophthalmia.

Bradycardia is incorrect. Kawasaki disease is an infection that affects the vascular system,

including the heart. The nurse should expect the child to be tachycardic with a gallop rhythm.

Long term effects of Kawasaki disease include the development of coronary artery aneurysms or

myocardial infarction.

Cervical lymphadenopathy is correct. The child who has Kawasaki disease may develop

enlarged cervical nodes on one side of the neck that are nontender and greater than 1.5 cm in

size.
