Study Snapshot
Key takeawayNYHA functional class correlates with objective cardiopulmonary exercise testing, but there is wide variability in measured exercise capacity in each NYHA classification, making CPET an important tool for identifying exercise limitations in adult congenital heart disease patients.
PopulationOlder adults (50-71 years)
Sample size24
MethodsObservational
OutcomesBody Mass Index projections
ResultsSocial networks mitigate obesity in older groups.
