New study aims to decode heart inflammation in kids
NCT ID NCT07175948
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study will follow 100 children aged 1 to 18 with myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) to see how different types of the disease progress. Researchers will track symptoms, treatments, and outcomes over one year. The goal is to better understand which children recover fully and which may need more intensive care.
