Abstract
RALS, RAEDVi and RAEF are abnormal in TOF. Reduced RALS indicates decreased RA reservoir function. Because they correlate with other functional RV indices, these abnormalities may represent RA diastolic burden from chronic RV dysfunction in TOF. The young cohort age might explain the absence of RALS correlation to tricuspid regurgitation and peak oxygen uptake.
