Summary

This study looks at whether wearing compression garments (like tight leggings) can improve how well the heart pumps blood during exercise in people with Fontan circulation, a rare heart condition. Twenty adults will do exercise tests in an MRI and on a bike, with and without the garments. A small group will also wear the garments for two weeks to see if long-term use helps.
