Non-invasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) in adult congenital heart disease patients with Fontan palliation

Rationale: Fontan palliation for single ventricle malformations is an increasingly common reason for heart failure in the adult population. Cardiac output (CO) measurement in Fontan physiology is achieved by invasive cardiac catheterization (RHC). Noninvasive CO monitors using thoracic bioreactance...
