Background: Little is known about serial changes in the physiology of single ventricle (SV) patients during staged palliation and if HLHS patients differ from the rest. Methods: We analyzed SV patients who had a combined cath with CMR at both the preBCPC and preFontan studies from 2016-2019. Flow contrast mapping used to calculate pulmonary arterial (Qpa) and venous (Qpv) flow. Systemic blood flow (Qs) calculated using [superior vena cava (SVC) flow + descending aortic flow at the level diaphragm]. Cerebral vascular resistance (CVRi) calculated using [ascending aortic pressure (AoP)-right atrial pressure (RAP)/SVC flow]. Systemic vascular resistance (SVR) calculated using [(AoP-RaP)/Qs]. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) was calculated using [(mean PAP - LAP)/Qpv]. Results: 30 patients were found, 10 with HLHS. The BCPC unloaded the heart, EDVi fell from preBCPC to preFontan. From preBCPC to preFontan(Table1): PA flow fell, but was compensated by increased APC flow to keep QpQs~1, PApressure and PVRi fell. Compared to others, the HLHS patients had larger hearts (EDVi) and lower PA but higher APC flow at both preBCPC(Table2)and preFontan(Table3). By preFontan, HLHS patients had worse function: higher ESVi, lower EF. Conclusion: QpQs ~1 is maintained by increase in APC flow. HLHS hearts are larger and deteriorate progressively.
