Fontan Fitness Trial
NCT06918795 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this randomized control trial is to learn about physical fitness and exercise habits in children aged 10-17 with the Fontan Circulation through a home-based, digital exercise intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does a home-based, digital intervention increase physical activity (PA) in youth with the FC compared to enhanced usual care? * Does a home-based, digital intervention increase physical fitness in youth with the FC compared to enhanced usual care? * Do multi-level factors (medical, neurodevelopmental, sociodemographic, neighborhood) impact the effectiveness of the digital intervention? Researchers will compare participants in the enhanced usual care arm to those in the exercise intervention arm to see if the digital intervention is effective. All participants will wear a PA tracker for 12 months and complete testing at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. In addition, participants in the exercise intervention arm will complete a 6-month exercise intervention with the following components: * aerobic exercise * resistance exercise * engagement strategies

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06918795
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06918795 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 200 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, which has 492 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Congenital Heart Disease appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Digital Exercise Intervention is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06918795 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Pennsylvania. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
