Scientific Abstract

Physical activity in Fontan patients has a positive effect on cardiopulmonary capacity. Peak oxygen uptake represents the most robust predictor for morbidity and mortality in these children. It can be improved through exercise. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) represents the most efficient method, but the implementation is difficult. An App-based training represents an alternative with the possibility of providing positive feedback through a Fitness tracker.
