Heart exercise testing for congenital heart disease
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests how well your heart pumps during exercise while you are undergoing a heart catheter procedure. It may help doctors better understand your heart function and guide your treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a congenital heart defect (a heart problem you were born with).
- You are scheduled for a cardiac catheterization (a tube procedure to check your heart).
- You can provide consent (agree to participate).
- You are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how blood flow and heart rhythm may affect exercise ability in people born with certain heart defects that have been repaired or treated. It uses a specialized heart MRI and ultrasound measurements to better understand these problems and their causes.
This study uses an MRI while exercising to check heart and lung fitness in children with heart disease. It helps doctors learn more about how to care for kids who have had a heart transplant or were born with heart problems.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive way to create detailed 3D maps of the heart's electrical activity in people with congenital heart disease. It aims to help guide procedures like heart catheterization or device implantation, potentially making them safer and more personalized.
This study uses a special ultrasound (echocardiography) with a contrast dye to see how blood flows through your lungs during exercise. It aims to help doctors better understand why patients get short of breath during activity.
This trial tests a new device that measures heart function without needing an invasive catheter. It aims to see if the device works as well as the standard right heart catheterization procedure.
This trial uses a special exercise test to measure heart and lung function in people scheduled for coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help doctors understand how well patients recover after surgery.
