  • Vascular Ring

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Cardiopulmonary exercise test

CPET using a cycle ergometer (COSMED, Rome, Italy) beginning with no resistance warmup lasting 1-3 minutes followed with an incrementing resistance adapted to the patient's functional capacities according to the examiner's free judgment by successive stages Six minute walk test - patients will be instructed to walk as far as possible for six minutes in a 30-meter long enclosed corridor with a flat and hard surface, marked at every meter. Meters will be calculated at the end of the test. SF-36 is a questionnaire that contains eight domains - physical functioning (10 items); role limitations due to physical functioning (4 items); role limitations due to emotional problems (3 items); energy and vitality (4 items); mental health (5 items); social functioning (2 items); bodily pain (2 items); and general health perceptions (5 items). Scores are summed for each domain and were transformed into scores of between 0 (worst possible health state) to 100 (best possible health state).
