Background Peak oxygen consumption (peak V̇O2$$ \dot{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{O}}_2 $$) is traditionally divided (“ratio‐scaled”) by body mass (BM) for clinical interpretation. Yet, it is unknown whether ratio‐scaling to BM can produce a valid size‐independent expression of peak V̇O2$$ \dot{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{O}}_2 $$ in people with a Fontan circulation. Furthermore, people with a Fontan circulation have deficits in lean mass, and it is unexplored whether using different measures of body composition may improve scaling validity. The objective was to assess the validity of different scaling denominators (BM, stature, body surface area, fat‐free mass, lean mass, and appendicular lean mass using ratio and allometric scaling). Methods and Results Eighty‐nine participants (age: 23.3±6.7 years; 53% female) with a Fontan circulation had their cardiorespiratory fitness and body composition measured by cardiopulmonary exercise testing and dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry. Ratio and allometric (log‐linear regression) scaling was performed and Pearson correlations assessed scaling validity. Scaling denominators BM (r=−0.25, P=0.02), stature (r=0.46, P |
