Values are indexed to BSA. Values in bold indicate where P < 0.05.

SV: stroke volume; BSA: body surface area; MBT: modified Blalock–Taussig; RVPA: right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery; EF: ejection fraction; LV: left ventricle; iEDV: indexed end diastolic volume; iESV: indexed end systolic volume; iSV: indexed stroke volume; TR: tricuspid regurgitation.
