This is the first study that assesses by cardiac catheterization and CPET the effects of ERA in patients with Fontan circulation with increased PVR. These results suggest that ERAs might provide most pronounced hemodynamic and functional improvement in adults and adolescents.
The new device ADO II AS was safely deployed with complete resolution of the PDA shunt. The lower profile and symmetry of this device allows for venous or arterial approach and smaller delivery catheter size. The ADO II AS might be a preferable alternative for closure of small-moderate PDAs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
