Quality of life after tetralogy of fallot surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how your quality of life is affected after surgery for Tetralogy of Fallot, and whether heart muscle function measured on an MRI can predict how you feel. If you join, researchers will use your routine MRI results to see how well your heart is working and connect that to your daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have had surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), a type of heart defect.
- You are getting a cardiac MRI (a special scan of your heart) for your regular check-up.
- You do not have significant problems with your aortic or mitral heart valves.
- You do not have other major heart defects besides TOF.
- You are able to have an MRI (no pacemaker, severe kidney disease, or severe claustrophobia).

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 is testing a new computer method to better find the exact spot in the heart that causes abnormal heart rhythms in people who had surgery for tetralogy of Fallot as children. By participating during your already planned heart test, you can help improve treatment options for others with your condition.
This study looks at how well the heart works after surgery for tetralogy of Fallot, a birth defect of the heart. It uses echo (ultrasound of the heart), ECG (a test that records the heart's electrical activity), and Holter monitoring (a portable device that tracks the heart's rhythm over time) to check for any problems or changes. If your child has had this repair, the results may help doctors understand what to expect and how to follow up.
This trial is a registry that collects information about people who have had Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repaired. It may help doctors better understand long-term outcomes and improve future care.
This study compares doing a valve replacement earlier versus later in people born with Tetralogy of Fallot who already had heart surgery as babies. It may help decide the safest timing to protect heart function, especially right-sided pumping and valve leakage.
This study looks at how a transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement works in people with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot or double outlet right ventricle. The goal is to better understand the heart’s anatomy and how it may affect the valve procedure.
