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 Peak VO2 was decteased in the complex and Fontan patients and the HR response during exercise and the imparied response were also greater in these two groups.

Sample
Population All (9-36 years)
Source patients
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.
