Reduced cardiac output and its correlation with coronary blood flow and troponin in asphyxiated infants treated with therapeutic hypothermia

Perinatal asphyxia can lead to multi-organ insult which includes cardiovascular dysfunction. The objective was to study the relationship between cardiac function, perfusion and troponin. Unit database was accessed to identify infants with perinatal asphyxia over the last 2 years. Information from medical records and archived echocardiographic images was retrieved.
