Table 15. Recommendations for ventricular strain in congenital heart disease129–135,137 .
| Indication | Recommendation class | Evidence level |
|---|---|---|
| Functional evaluation of subpulmonary RV (e.g. T4F) | IIb | B |
| Functional evaluation of systemic RV (e.g. PO of Senning procedure, CCTGA) | IIb | B |
| Evaluation of SV before Fontan procedure | IIb | B |
| Evaluation of SV after Fontan procedure | IIb | B |
| Assessment of LV after ALCAPA surgical repair | IIa | B |
| Evaluation of LV function in aortic stenosis | IIb | B |
ALCAPA: anomalous left main coronary artery from the pulmonary artery; CCTGA: congenitally corrected transpositionof thegreat arteries; LV: left ventricle; PO: postoperative; RV: right ventricle; SV: single ventricle; T4F: tetralogy of Fallot.
