Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. Survivorship from congenitalheartdisease has improved rapidly secondary to advances in surgical and medical management. This is an updated report of the American Heart Association's previous publications on exercise in children.
Developments in cardiovascular (CV) surgery and related care have led to the improved survival of patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) and more teenagers and adults living with congenitalheartdisease (ACHD).
This was a bold move at the time, when most patients with his congenitalheart condition — dextro-transposition of the great arteries, or d-TGA — were advised to avoid exercise and strenuous activity. He went all out and exercised like crazy, and that was the best thing for his heart.”
Objective To evaluate for correlation between exercise capacity as assessed by peak oxygen consumption (pVO 2 ) measurement during a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and smartwatches reporting this parameter in patients with adult congenitalheartdisease (ACHD) complex lesions.
BackgroundExercise parameters can be altered in children with congenitalheartdisease or acquired heartdisease compared with children with normal hearts. Exercise testing has proven a useful tool to predict patient outcomes and even the need for reintervention in several cardiovascular disease processes.

Objectives:Physically active lifestyles are important for patients with congenitalheartdisease, including Fontan. 2 years.Cardiopulmonary exercise tests, bio-impedance analyser, echocardiography and PedsQL questionnaires, generic (V4.0) Mean age of 14.8±2 and cardiac modules (V3.0) were performed. 23.4%; p=0.020).Higher
Transcript of the video: Ebstein’s Anomaly is one of the cyanotic congenitalheartdisease in which survival to adult life is common. Ebstein’s anomaly may present with a murmur for evaluation in the pediatric age group or in adults with arrhythmias or heart failure with cyanosis and exercise intolerance.
Lowering the raised LA mean pressure is a major therapeutic goal in any severely symptomatic left heartdisease, whether it is valvular or myocardial disease. It is prudent to understand, that even in systolic LV failure; it is the raised LVEDP that causes the symptoms and marks the limits of exercise capacity.
But, still for an academic exercise, we will try. And all the three are cyanotic congenitalheartdiseases. Transcript of the video: Interpreting an echo quiz just from a single frame has a lot of limitations. Unlike the ECG, where a single image may be more informative, echo usually requires moving images.
Background Iron deficiency (ID) has been reported in patients with congenitalheartdisease. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of ID in Fontan patients and to investigate the association between ID and exercise capacity in this population. during cardiopulmonary exercise testing. ±18.4
Methods Patients from the Swiss Adult CongenitalHEartdisease Registry were included. NT-proBNP levels, echocardiography, exercise testing and MRI data were collected. We investigated the prognostic impact of right ventricular (RV) dyssynchrony in adults with rTOF years after the surgical repair.
“When we observed that bicuspid aortic valve is kind of a risk marker for this group with bad outcomes, we specifically wanted to see whether young individuals who present clinically due to problems related to bicuspid aortic valve disease may also have rare genetic variants that predict complications such as needing valve surgery.”
Transcript of video: Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the commonest cyanotic congenitalheartdiseases. Hemodynamic effects of pulmonary regurgitation include chronic right ventricular volume overload, right ventricular dysfunction and exercise intolerance. As the name implies, there are four defects.
BackgroundAn increasing number of patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) engage in physical activities and may exercise at high altitudes (HA). The physiological adaptations required at HA and their implications on individuals with CHD, especially during exercise, remain underexplored.
