Abstract
CPD is present in a proportion of adolescent and adult patients after Fontan palliation. The presence of CPD is associated with reduced systolic and diastolic function compared with Fontan patients without CPD. Because the presence of CPD appears to be a promising predictor for response to cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with biventricular circulation, these findings may have important potential for prospective evaluation of cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with univentricular circulation.
