Abstract Objective To investigate the cardiopulmonary function of children with functional single ventricle after Fontan operation. Methods By noninvasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), 39 children with functional single ventricle after Fontan operation were compared with healthy controls, and their cardiopulmonary function was analyzed. Results The general demographic data of children with functional single ventricle were similar to those of the healthy control group. For the core index of CPET, oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold of the children with functional single ventricle was significantly lower than that of the control group［ (15.6±4.6)mL/(min·kg) vs. (29.1±6.4)mL/(min·kg)］with percentage of estimated maximum oxygen uptake ［(39.3±11.1)% vs. (71.0±14.0)%］. The oxygen uptake under extreme conditions of the children with functional single ventricle was significantly lower than that of the control group ［（23.7±5.3）mL/(min·kg) vs. (43.5±7.5）mL/(min·kg)］with percentage of estimated maximum oxygen uptake ［(59.9±13.6)% vs. (107.0±17.0)%］ (P<0.000 1). Conclusion The cardiopulmonary function of children with functional single ventricle is significantly lower than that of the healthy controls, so exercise intervention is recommended.
