SHARE – workpackage 5: evidence-based recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of kawasaki disease and henoch schönlein purpura
Kawasaki Disease (KD) and Henoch Schonlein Purpura (HSP) are paediatric vasculitides that can lead to significant morbidity. Evidence-based guidelines are sparse and management is mostly based on physician experience. Consequently, treatment regimens differ throughout Europe. In 2012, a European initiative called SHARE (Single Hub and Access point for paediatric Rheumatology in Europe) was launched to optimize and disseminate guidelines for diagnosis and management for children and young adults with paediatric rheumatic diseases (PRD) such as KD and HSP within Europe.
