ACC/AHA 2008 Guidelines for the Management of Adults With Congenital Heart Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]

Medical Therapy (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]

Class I
"1. Warfarin should be given for patients who have a documented atrial shunt, atrial thrombus, atrial arrhythmias, or a thromboembolic event. (Level of Evidence: C)"
Class IIa
"1. It is reasonable to treat systemic ventricle (SV) dysfunction with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and diuretics. (Level of Evidence: C)"

Management Strategies for the Patient With Prior Fontan Repair(DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]

Class I
"1. Management of patients with prior Fontan repair should be coordinated with a regional ACHD center. Local cardiologists, internists, and family care physicians should develop ongoing relationships with such a center with continuous availability of specialists. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"2. At least yearly follow-up is recommended for patients after Fontan repair. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"3. Arrhythmia management is frequently an issue, and consultation with an electrophysiologist is recommended as a vital part of care. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"4. New-onset atrial tachyarrhythmia should prompt a comprehensive noninvasive imaging evaluation to identify associated atrial/baffle thrombus, anatomic abnormalities of the Fontan pathway, or ventricular dysfunction. (Level of Evidence: C)"
