Children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) have risk for mortality and/or transplantation. Previous studies have associated right ventricular (RV) indices in a single echocardiogram with survival, but none have related serial measurements to outcomes. This study sought to determine whether the trajectory of RV indices in the first year of life was associated with transplant-free survival to stage 3 palliation (S3P).

右心室指数轨迹是左心发育不全综合征结局的早期预测指标

患有左心发育不全综合征 (HLHS) 的儿童有死亡和/或移植的风险。以前的研究已将单个超声心动图中的右心室 (RV) 指数与生存率相关联，但没有一项研究将连续测量结果与结果相关联。本研究旨在确定 RV 指数在生命第一年的轨迹是否与无移植生存至第 3 期姑息治疗 (S3P) 相关。
