The utility of troponin levels, including high sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT), after orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) is controversial. Conflicting data exist regarding its use as a marker of acute rejection. Few studies have examined possible associations of hs-TnT levels immediately after OHT with metrics of intensive care unit (ICU) resource utilization or risk of acute rejection. We performed a retrospective cohort chart review including all OHT recipients < 20 years of age at our center between June 2019 and December 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on supra- or sub-median initial hs-TnT levels (median 3462.5 ng/L). Primary outcome was days requiring ICU-level care, secondary outcomes included days intubated, days requiring positive pressure ventilation (PPV), days on inotropic medications, actual ICU length of stay, Vasoactive Inotrope Scores (VIS) on postoperative days (POD) 0 through 7, and acute rejection at 30 days and one year after OHT. Patients with higher hs-TnT required ICU level care for longer [13.5 (10-17.5) vs. 9.5 (8-12) days, p = 0.01] and spent more days intubated [6 (4-7) vs. 3 (3-5) days, p < 0.001], on PPV [9 (6-15) vs. 6 (5-8.5) days, p = 0.02], and on inotropes [11 (9-14) vs. 8 (7-11) days, p = 0.025]. VIS was only different between groups on POD7 [5 (3-7) vs. 3 (0-5), p = 0.04]. There was no difference in rejection between the groups. Higher hs-TnT immediately following pediatric OHT may predict higher ICU resource utilization, despite no difference in VIS, although it does not predict acute rejection in the first year after OHT.
