- Abstract: In patients with CHD after Fontan palliation, there is a lack of a pumping chamber in the pulmonary circulation; thus, pulmonary blood flow and cardiac output are sensitive to increased pulmonary vascular resistance; if obstructive sleep apnoea is present, there are legitimate concerns from continuous positive airway pressure ventilation, which may hinder pulmonary blood flow.
