Diastolic Dysfunction With Preserved Ejection Fraction After the Fontan Procedure

Background Heart failure phenotyping in single-ventricle Fontan patients is challenging, particularly in patients with normal ejection fraction (EF). The objective of this study was to identify Fontan patients with abnormal diastolic function, who are high risk for heart failure with preserved eject...

Zusammenfassung:Background Heart failure phenotyping in single-ventricle Fontan patients is challenging, particularly in patients with normal ejection fraction (EF). The objective of this study was to identify Fontan patients with abnormal diastolic function, who are high risk for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and characterize their cardiac mechanics, exercise function, and functional health status. Methods and Results Data were obtained from the Pediatric Heart Network Fontan Cross-sectional Study database. EF was considered abnormal if
