简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate whether venous compression garments increase exercise stroke volume in patients with Fontan circulation. To address this aim, we will test the following hypotheses:
- Acute and chronic external venous compression will increase exercise stroke volume in patients with Fontan circulation.
- Patients with significant venous varicosities will have a greater response to venous compression.
Participants will:
- Undergo submaximal exercise testing in MRI to measure venous return and exercise stroke volume with and without the wearing of compression garments
- Undergo submaximal exercise testing on a seated upright exercise ergometer with concurrent measurement of stroke volume with and without the wearing of compression garments
- A subset of participants will repeat both testing visits after wearing compression garments for 2-weeks during waking hours.

详细描述
Study Day 1 - Consent, Screening and Garment Measurements:
Following assessment of participant eligibility, all participants will undergo leg venous ultrasound assessment and abdominal-foot measurements for the custom making of compression garments.
Study Day 2 - MRI:
Study participants will undergo comprehensive cardiovascular MRI using a 3T MRI scanner with and without compression garments and exercise.
Study Day 3 - Cardiovascular & Exercise Testing Day:
