Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare exercise capacity, cardiac contractility, pulmonary vascular pressures and heart rate variability between patients with an atrial septal defect and healthy controls.

Conditions

  • Atrial Septal Defect
  • Pulmonary Hypertension

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Echocardiography

Standard echocardiography.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Right side catheterization

Right side catheterization with the purpose of measuring pulmonary vascular pressures and blood saturation.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Exercise test
