Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint will be the difference in iRVF pattern measured via renal sonography, renal function (eGFR) and renal damage (urine albumin, L-FABP and cystatin C concentrations) between patients with a Fontan circulation vs. healthy age and sex matched controls. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary endpoints will include the following: - Identify the prevalence of different iRVF patterns in patients with a Fontan circulation assessed with renal ultrasound. - Estimated glomerular filtration rate determined by serum creatinine and plasma cystatin C. - Concentration of urine albumin, L-FABP and cystatin C. - Difference of eGFR between iRVF patterns. - Difference in urine albumin, L-FABP and cystatin C concentration between iRVF-patterns. - Correlation of eGFR, urine albumin L-FABP and urine cystatin C to venous discontinuity index (VDI) and/or venous impedance index (VII). | — |
