Abstract

Z-score models in pediatric echocardiographic studies are pivotal in medical decision making in patients with concern for aortopathies. An aortic root Z score > 2 may prompt genetic testing or a clinical diagnosis of Marfan if Z >3. This study sought to determine if there was a significant difference between Boston (BTN) and Pediatric Heart Network (PHN) allometric Z-score models in patients referred for aortopathy with or without connective tissue disorders (CTD).
