The purpose of this study is to non-invasively characterize the fibrotic consequences of single ventricle physiology, its possible solution and effect on lymphatics. This project investigates the response to acute imposition of Fontan hemodynamics by examining the interrelationship between liver and cardiac fibrosis/dysfunction and lymphatic congestion along with a pilot trial of the antifibrotic agent, spironolactone, to prevent these consequences and to determine if MRI can discern these differences. The combination of serum biomarkers and MRI form a powerful non-invasive tool in putting together this complicated web of dysfunction.
NCT06993129
Infants with medical complexity (IMC) are a challenging population with more emergency department visits, inpatient stays, and higher healthcare costs than other children. IMC also experience lower quality emergency health care. The PI and team propose to adapt and put into place an emergency care action plan (ECAP) for IMC across four US hospitals, working directly with medical providers and families in each setting. After the tool is made available to providers and families, the PI and team will measure if the ECAP tool helps decrease the number of hospitalizations (primary research outcome) for IMC, as well as if the ECAP is feasible, acceptable, and useable for those using the ECAP over a one-year period.
