Mechanisms of Systemic Adaptation to Univentricular Fontan Conversion

OBJECTIVE: After univentricular Fontan conversion, systemic venous pressure serves as the sole driving force for transpulmonary blood flow. Consequently, systemic venous return is markedly altered and ventricular filling is subnormal. The mechanisms and time course of systemic adaptation to Fontan c...
