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
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. Therefore, a better circulatory management strategy to ameliorate organ congestion is r...
