Exercise testing in Children's Hospital Boston's Exercise Physiology Laboratory plays an important role in many clinical research projects, such as:
|
|
- The effect of pulmonary artery angioplasties on the cardiopulmonary response to exercise.
- The status of patients who have had the Fontan procedure.
- The relative value of different surgical strategies in patients with pulmonary atresia/intact ventricular septum.
- The effect of pulmonary valve replacement in patients with tetralogy of Fallot.
- The cardiopulmonary response to exercise of patients who have had stents implanted for treatment of coarctation of the aorta.
- The effect of cardiac rehabilitation on patients with serious congenital heart disease.
