Why the study?

Does the slope of oxygen uptake versus exercise intensity differ between pediatric patients with surgically repaired congenital heart disease and normal controls?

Structured PICO

Does the slope of oxygen uptake versus exercise intensity differ between pediatric patients with surgically repaired congenital heart disease and normal controls?

P

Population

83 pediatric subjects, including 29 patients who underwent an atrial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries (TGA) (mean age 10.3 years), 30 patients who underwent total repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TF) (mean age 12.1 years), and 24 normal controls (mean age 11.4 years).

I

Intervention

Graded exercise testing on a treadmill with breath-by-breath gas exchange measurement

C

Comparator

Normal controls (n=24)

O

Outcome

Relation between exercise intensity and oxygen uptake (slope of oxygen uptake versus exercise intensity)surrogate
