Raising awareness among the medical community, childcare providers, and the general public is critical to early diagnosis and treatment
Facilitating support among families is essential to helping families cope with this uncommon illness and the potentially devastating effects of heart damage
Increasing funding for research is necessary to advance diagnostic guidelines, enhance the existing treatment, improve short-term and long-term follow-up care, and find a cause
