Objective: (1) To derive a prediction rule for pediatric myocarditis that distinguishes low-risk patients for whom additional work-up, including venipuncture or cardiac imaging, may be avoided, (2) to assess the test characteristics of troponin in our study population.

Methods: This retrospective case-control study included all patients who presented to a pediatric emergency department between 2010 and 2021 and underwent troponin testing for suspected myocarditis. Myocarditis cases (identified using American Heart Association criteria) and controls were to approximate a 1:2 ratio.
