The relationship of systemic right ventricular function to ECG parameters and NT-proBNP levels in adults with transposition of the great arteries late after Senning or Mustard surgery

Abstract

Circulating NT-proBNP levels and several surface ECG parameters constitute safe, cost-effective and widely available surrogate markers of systemic right ventricular function and provide additional information on heart failure status. Both measures hold promise as prognostic markers and their association with long-term outcome should be determined.
