Transcatheter implantation of an IHM is feasible in select complex adult CHD patients with advanced HF. Further studies evaluating integration of ambulatory hemodynamics and the impact on clinical care are needed. This technology has the potential to improve medical management of advanced HF in patients with Fontan and atrial switch physiologies and provide new insights into their ambulatory hemodynamics.
