Impact of Peak Donor Troponin and Donor Troponin Trends on Pediatric Heart Transplant Outcomes
Most pediatric HT donors exhibit abnormal troponin levels. Elevated peak donor troponin (>0.66 ng/mL) correlates with donor hemodynamic instability and predicts worse 1-year post transplant graft survival, whereas troponin trajectories are not prognostic.
