Suggested cardiac monitoring protocol for girls with Turner syndrome

Suggested monitoring protocol for girls with Turner syndrome from infancy to 16 years of age.

TTE: transthoracic echocardiography; CMRI: cardiac magnetic resonance imaging; ECG: electrocardiogram; CoA: coarctation of aorta; BAV: bicuspid aortic valve; HTN; hypertension; TSZ: Turner syndrome-specific Z-score of the aorta.
* Echocardiography is usually adequate for infants and young girls. For older girls and adults, both CMRI and echocardiography may be needed.
