Abstract
In this study of children with single ventricle circulation, elevated norepinephrine levels were observed and were associated with a poor outcome. Consideration should be given to the further study of the role of neurohormonal activation and potentially its blockade, currently used for heart failure from systolic dysfunction, in the management of this high risk congenital heart disease population.
