Contributions of residual hypoxemia to exercise hyperventilation in Fontan patients [PDF]

, 2020
2020-05It is unsettled whether increased exercise ventilation in Fontan subjects is due to increased pulmonary dead space or augmented ventilatory drive. Twenty-six Fontan patients underwent symptom-limited treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Two

Induction of aggressive arterial and venous dilation therapy in addition to pulmonary dilation therapy (super-Fontan strategy) improves Fontan circulation both at rest and during treadmill exerciseCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open, 2022
Objective: Fontan circulation maintains preload and cardiac output by reducing venous capacitance and increasing central venous pressure (CVP). The resultant congestive end-organ damage affects patient prognosis.

End‐Organ Function and Exercise Performance in Patients With Fontan Circulation: What Characterizes the High Performers?

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background The physiologic hallmarks of the Fontan circulation—chronically elevated central venous pressures and low cardiac output—have significant effects not only on cardiovascular status but also impact other organ systems.

Exercise Capacity, Endothelial Function, Muscle Mass, and Strength in Pediatric Patients With Fontan Circulation. [PDF]

CJC Pediatr Congenit Heart Dis
Abstract Background Fontan circulation carries high morbidity and mortality, driven in part by impaired exercise capacity, muscle deficits, and endothelial dysfunction. In a pediatric cohort with Fontan circulation, we examined associations between exercise capacity, endothelial function, and muscle parameters before enrollment in a randomized exercise
