| Data ID | 3574 |
| Factor | PST (cardiac parasympathetic nervous tone) (bpm) |
| Description | In Fontan patients, the lower β sensitivity of the sinus node and the PST mainly determined the higher cNCR ( p<0.01) and the cNCR did not correlate with either hemodynamics or exercise capacity. |
| Biomarker | NA |
| Classification | E10 (physiological factor - other) |

| Application | treatment and prognosis |
| Objective | To investigate the negative chronotropic response (NCR) to low-dose atropine in postoperative patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). |
| p Value | <0.001 |
| Conclusion | PST and cPST were also lower in the CHD groups, especially in the complex and Fontan patients and were proportionally decreased according to the exercise capacity. |

| Region | Osaka, Japan | |
| Method | NCR corrected for basal heart rate (HR) (minimal HR/basal HR=cNCR) was determined after low-dose atropine (3 Ag/kg) administration and was compared with the cardiac autonomic nervous and functional status. | |
