This week we delve into the world of adult congenital heart disease when we review a recent work from the ACHD team at UCSF that assesses the impact of BMI on clinical outcomes in the single ventricle adult Fontan patient. What is the cause of elevation in BMI in some Fontan patients? Is obesity the only explanation? Is BMI a modifiable risk factor for our Fontan patients and should exercise be 'prescribed' for these patients? If so prescribed, what type of exercise is best for the Fontan patient? This week's work's senior author, Dr. Anushree Agarwal, Assistant Professor of Medicine at UCSF, shares her insights into this important topic.
