Allograft Fibrosis Following Pediatric Cardiac Transplantation

NCT00328185 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2012-03-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Transplantation is the preferred method of treating many forms of end-stage organ failure. While short-term results have improved, long-term outcomes remain inadequate. Myocardial fibrosis could potentially have an adverse effect on long-term cardiac function. We wish to study the degree of fibrosis to see if we can predict survival following pediatric heart transplantation.
