As the survival rate after modified Fontan procedure is increasing, cardiopulmonary resuscitation may be needed in such patients for other causes not related to their cardiac status. The state-of-the-art cardiopulmonary resuscitation with external chest compression may not be sufficient to revive such patients, and the addition of external abdominal compressions may help in the final outcome, as is reported here.
