Abstract
Background: The current technique used in severe mitral regurgitation in children can occasionally lead to residual regurgitation. To address this issue, the posterior annulus elevation technique was developed to enhance coaptation and reduce residual lesions. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of this technique in reducing residual regurgitation during mitral valve repair in children. Methods: A total of 64 patients aged <18 years old undergoing mitral valve repair were randomized into two groups: the intervention (with posterior annulus elevation) group and the control group, which underwent conventional repair techniques. Various parameters, including coaptation area, residual mitral regurgitation, clinical outcomes, metabolic, and hemolytic markers, were measured on days 0, 5, 2 weeks, and 3 months after surgery. Results: The intervention group (n = 32) showed a significant reduction in residual mitral regurgitation compared with the control group (n = 32) on each evaluation. At three months after surgery, we found that the posterior annulus elevation technique could be a protective factor that reduces the chance of residual regurgitation compared with the control group (RR = 0.31; confidence interval: 0.18-0.54; P ≤ .001). Coaptation length and index were also found to be significantly higher in the intervention group (P ≤ .001). Clinical outcomes, metabolic markers, and hemolysis marker did not show any significant differences between the two groups. Conclusions: The posterior annulus elevation technique demonstrated effectiveness in reducing residual mitral regurgitation and improving coaptation area in pediatric mitral valve repair. This technique showed better short-term surgical outcomes in children with mitral regurgitation compared with the conventional technique.

Abstract
Apparently healthy children often complain of chest pain, especially after physical exercise. Cardiac biomarker levels are often measured, but the clinical relevance of these assays in children is still debated, even when a cardiac disease is present. Coronary artery disease is exceedingly rare in children, but elevated circulating levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and T (cTnT) in an acute setting may help detect heart failure due to an unknown cardiac disorder, or worsening heart failure, particularly in combination with other biomarkers such as B-type natriuretic peptides. However, the interpretation of biomarkers is often challenging, especially when institutions transition from conventional cTn assays to high-sensitivity (hs-cTn) methods, as well demonstrated in the emergency setting for adult patients. From a clinical perspective, the lack of established reference values in the pediatric age is the main problem limiting the use of hs-cTn methods for the diagnosis and managements of cardiac diseases in infants, children and adolescents. This review aims to discuss the possibility to use hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT to detect cardiac disease and to explore age-related differences in biomarker levels in the pediatric age. We start from some analytical and pathophysiological considerations related to hs-cTn assays. Then, after a systematic literature search, we discuss the current evidence and possible limitations of hs-cTn assay as indicators of cardiac disease in the most frequently cardiac disease in pediatric setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We compared the effect of two inodilators, levosimendan and milrinone, on the plasma levels of myocardial injury biomarkers, that is, high-sensitivity troponin T and heart-type fatty acid binding protein, and on N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide as a biomarker of ventricular function. We hypothesized that levosimendan could attenuate the degree of myocardial injury when compared with milrinone. DESIGN A post hoc, nonprespecified exploratory secondary analysis of the Milrinone versus Levosimendan-1 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02232399). SETTING Two pediatric tertiary university hospitals. PATIENTS Infants 1-12 months old, diagnosed with ventricular septal defect, complete atrioventricular septal defect, or Tetralogy of Fallot undergoing corrective surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. INTERVENTIONS Seventy patients received a loading dose of either levosimendan or milrinone at the start of cardiopulmonary bypass followed by an infusion of the respective drug, which continued for 26 hours. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Plasma levels of the three cardiac biomarkers were measured prior to the initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass and 2, 6, and 24 hours after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass. In both groups, the levels of high-sensitivity troponin T and heart-type fatty acid binding protein were highest at 2 hours post cardiopulmonary bypass, whereas the highest level of N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide occurred at 24 hours post cardiopulmonary bypass. There was no significant difference in the biomarkers' plasma levels between the study groups over time. Neither was there a significant difference in the postoperative peak plasma levels of the cardiac biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS In this post hoc analysis of the MiLe-1 trial, there was no demonstrable difference in the postoperative cardiac biomarker profile of myocardial injury and ventricular function when comparing infants managed in the perioperative period with levosimendan versus milrinone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical use of common cardiac biomarkers, such as brain natriuretic peptides and troponins, has traditionally been limited to adult populations in the assessment of heart failure and acute coronary syndrome, respectively. While many have discounted the value of these markers in pediatric populations, emerging evidence suggests they may be useful in the diagnosis and prognostication of many cardiac and noncardiac pathologies in neonates, children, and adolescents, and an increasing number of pediatric hospitals are routinely measuring cardiac markers in their clinical practice. CONTENT This review summarizes and critically evaluates the current literature regarding the application of cardiac biomarkers for clinical decision-making in the pediatric population. Main potential clinical indications discussed herein include primary cardiac disease, immune-related conditions, and noncardiac disease. Important diagnostic and interpretative challenges are also described in relation to each potential indication. SUMMARY Despite a general lack of clinical awareness regarding the value of cardiac biomarkers in pediatrics, there is increasing literature to support their application in various contexts. Cardiac biomarkers should be considered an undervalued resource in the pediatric population with potential value in the diagnosis and prognosis of myocarditis, congenital heart disease, and heart failure, as well as in the assessment of severity and cardiac involvement in immune-related and other systemic conditions. While interpretation remains challenging in pediatrics due to the age- and sex-specific dynamics occurring throughout growth and development, this should not prevent their application. Future research should focus on defining evidence-based cut-offs for specific indications using the most up-to-date assays.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine whether changes in perioperative N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are associated with short-term outcomes in children undergoing surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD). METHODS We retrospectively included 873 consecutive children with CHD after cardiac surgery. NT-proBNP concentrations were collected from each child prior to and at 1, 12, 36 and 72 h after surgery. The patients had postsurgical follow-ups at 30, 90 and 180 days. The end point was postoperative composite adverse events. RESULTS The patients were classified into 3 groups using joint latent class mixture time-to-event models: (i) relatively stable (86.7%), (ii) decreasing (7.2%) and (iii) increasing (6.1%). In total, 257 (29.4%) adverse events occurred. The joint latent class mixture time-to-event models showed that increasing NT-proBNP was strongly associated with adverse events, with adjusted hazard ratio of 2.33 (95% confidence interval 1.52-3.60). Multinomial logistic regression showed that the variables associated with the pattern of change were age, weight at surgery, mode of delivery and cardiopulmonary bypass time. CONCLUSIONS The pattern of dynamic postsurgical changes in NT-proBNP may facilitate outcome stratification and identification of a high risk for adverse events.

Abstract
Few reports have described the prognostic value of measuring both B-type natriuretic peptides (BNP) and high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) in pediatric patients with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing surgery. We assessed demographic, hemodynamic, and laboratory data, including BNP and hs-TnT levels, for the prediction of cardiac adverse events in 85 patients. Cardiac adverse events were defined as death, cardiac arrest, worsening heart failure requiring inotropic agents and/or respiratory support, and unscheduled surgery/intervention either within or after 12 months of surgery. There were 17 cardiac adverse events. Of the demographic variables, low birth weight (< 2500 g: Odds ratio [OR], 5.97; 95% confidential interval [CI] 1.48-24.0; p = 0.001) and Ross/New York Heart Association [NYHA] class (≥ 2.0) (OR 12.7; 95% CI 3.08-52.7; p = 0.0004) were strongly association with cardiac adverse events. Among hemodynamic and laboratory variables, preoperative BNP (OR 14.04; 95% CI 2.15-91.7; p = 0.001) and hs-TnT levels (OR 16.66; 95% CI 2.27-122; p = 0.002) were found to be independent risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic analysis determined BNP and hs-TnT levels of 60.9 pg/mL and 0.025 ng/mL, respectively, to be markers of high risk. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated significant differences in the freedom from cardiac adverse events between Group A (BNP or hs-TnT elevated, n = 26) and Group B (both biomarkers elevated, n = 19; log-rank, p < 0.001). In conclusion, low birth weight (< 2500 g) and Ross/NYHA class ≥ 2.0 are strongly associated with cardiac adverse events. Preoperative BNP and hs-TnT also provide prognostic information in patients with complex CHD scheduled for surgery. Using both markers in combination predicts cardiac adverse events better than using either separately.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although widely used in cardiology, relation of heart failure biomarkers to cardiac haemodynamics in patients with CHD (and in particular with pulmonary insufficiency undergoing pulmonary valve replacement) remains unclear. We hypothesised that the cardiac function biomarkers N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity 2, and galectin-3 would have significant associations to right ventricular haemodynamic derangements. METHODS Consecutive patients ( n = 16) undergoing cardiac catheterisation for transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement were studied. NT-proBNP, soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity 2, and galectin-3 levels were measured using a multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay from a pre-intervention blood sample obtained after sheath placement. Spearman correlation was used to identify significant correlations (p ≤ 0.05) of biomarkers with baseline cardiac haemodynamics. Cardiac MRI data (indexed right ventricular and left ventricular end-diastolic volumes and ejection fraction) prior to device placement were also compared to biomarker levels. RESULTS NT-proBNP and soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity 2 were significantly correlated (p < 0.01) with baseline mean right atrial pressure and right ventricular end-diastolic pressure. Only NT-proBNP was significantly correlated with age. Galectin-3 did not have significant associations in this cohort. Cardiac MRI measures of right ventricular function and volume were not correlated to biomarker levels or right heart haemodynamics. CONCLUSIONS NT-proBNP and soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity 2, biomarkers of myocardial strain, significantly correlated to invasive pressure haemodynamics in transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement patients. Serial determination of soluble suppressor of tumorigenicity 2, as it was not associated with age, may be superior to serial measurement of NT-proBNP as an indicator for timing of pulmonary valve replacement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES To assess the predictive value of atrial natriuretic peptide, β-type natriuretic peptide, copeptin, mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) and cardiac troponin I (cTn-I) as indicators of low cardiac output syndrome in children with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). METHODS After corrective surgery for congenital heart disease under CPB, 117 children (aged 10 days to 180 months) were enrolled in a prospective observational pilot study during a 2-year period. The patients were classified according to whether they developed low cardiac output syndrome. Biomarker levels were measured at 2, 12, 24, and 48 hours post-CPB. The clinical data and outcome variables were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression model. RESULTS Thirty-three (29%) patients developed low cardiac output syndrome (group 1) and the remaining 84 (71%) patients were included in group 2. cTn-I levels >14 ng/mL at 2hours after CPB (OR, 4.05; 95%CI, 1.29-12.64; P=.016) and MR-proADM levels>1.5 nmol/L at 24hours following CPB (OR, 15.54; 95%CI, 4.41-54.71; P<.001) were independent predictors of low cardiac output syndrome. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that cTn-I at 2hours post-CPB is, by itself, an evident independent early predictor of low cardiac output syndrome. This predictive capacity is, moreover, reinforced when cTn-I is combined with MR-proADM levels at 24hours following CPB. These 2 cardiac biomarkers would aid in therapeutic decision-making in clinical practice and would also enable clinicians to modify the type of support to be used in the pediatric intensive care unit.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this review, we discuss the physiology, pathophysiology, and clinical role of troponin, lactate, and B-type natriuretic peptide in the assessment and management of children with critical cardiac disease. DATA SOURCE MEDLINE, PubMed. CONCLUSION Lactate, troponin, and B-type natriuretic peptide continue to be valuable biomarkers in the assessment and management of critically ill children with cardiac disease. However, the use of these markers as a single measurement is handicapped by the wide variety of clinical scenarios in which they may be increased. The overall trend may be more useful than any single level with a persistent or rising value of more importance than an elevated initial value.

Abstract
BACKGROUND NP is a biomarker that has been used in the diagnosis, management, and prognostication of a number of cardiovascular disorders in the pediatric population. The physiological role of this hormone is to allow the myocardium to adapt to stress or strain imposed by a volume and/or pressure load. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the utility of preoperative and postoperative NP to predict outcome in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery for structural congenital heart disease. METHOD We conducted a systematic review by searching three electronic databases using the search terms 'paediatric' or 'pediatric' and 'B-type natriuretic peptide'. Twenty peer-reviewed papers were included in the study. RESULTS Preoperative NP levels were associated with the severity of cardiac failure in several studies. Preoperative NPs also correlated with early postoperative outcome measures such as duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, duration of mechanical ventilation, presence of low cardiac output syndrome, length of stay in the intensive care unit and in one study, death. Early (within 24 h) postoperative NPs showed a stronger correlation than preoperative NPs to early postoperative adverse events. CONCLUSION NPs provide a simple, noninvasive and complementary tool to echocardiography that can be used to assist clinicians in the assessment and management of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease in the perioperative period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We measured serum NT-proBNP levels in 2 groups of young patients (0-36 months) with congestive heart failure (CHF) secondary to congenital heart malformations (CHM). METHODS The first group included 23 patients prior to surgery for heart malformations. The second group included 12 patients with CHM within 24 hours post-operation. NT-proBNP levels were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent immunoassay (ELISA) using the Chem Well 2910 (Awareness Technology Inc.) automated analyzer. RESULTS NT-proBNP values were 4 times higher in patients with unoperated CHM compared to healthy controls (P < 0.001), and 12 times higher in patients with CHM 24 hours after surgery compared to controls (P = 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrated significant changes in NT-proBNP concentrations before and after surgery to correct congenital heart malformations.

B-type natriuretic peptide levels predict outcomes in infants undergoing cardiac surgery in a lesion-dependent fashion. J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2013; 145:1279-87.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE B-type natriuretic peptide is used in the diagnosis, risk stratification, and management of adult patients with cardiac disease. However, its use in infants with congenital heart disease has been limited, particularly in the perioperative period. Our objective was to determine the alterations in perioperative B-type natriuretic peptide levels and their predictive value on postoperative outcomes, in infants undergoing congenital heart surgery. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 115 patients: 24 with univentricular heart disease undergoing a modified Norwood procedure, 11 with d-transposition of the great arteries, 55 with hemodynamically important left-to-right shunt, and 25 with tetralogy of Fallot undergoing primary repair. Clinical data and B-type natriuretic peptide samples were collected before and 2, 12, and 24 hours after cardiopulmonary bypass. Univariate analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed. RESULTS The perioperative B-type natriuretic peptide levels were lesion specific. Patients with d-transposition of the great arteries and univentricular heart disease had high preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide levels that decreased postoperatively, and those with hemodynamically important left-to-right shunts and tetralogy of Fallot had lower preoperative levels that increased during the first 12 hours postoperatively. The patients with univentricular heart disease with an adverse outcome had a significantly greater 24-hour B-type natriuretic peptide level than those without (P < .05). Those with hemodynamically important left to right shunts and an adverse outcome had a greater 12-hour B-type natriuretic peptide level than those without (P < .05). A 12-hour postoperative/preoperative ratio greater than 45 was 100% sensitive and 82% specific for an adverse outcome in the patients with tetralogy of Fallot. CONCLUSIONS The perioperative changes in B-type natriuretic peptide levels and their ability to predict outcomes are lesion-specific. Characterization of these changes might be useful in caring for infants after congenital heart surgery.
