Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Girls (8-18y) with Turner Sydrome.

The goal of this clinical trial is to have a beter insight in the exercise tolerance in girls with Turner Syndrome aged 8-18 years . The main question it aims to answer is:

Is there a difference in VO2 max comparing Turner syndrome girls with standard values? How do cardiovascular parameters change during exercise (heart rate, bloodpressure, ...)

Participants will perform a cyclo-ergometry in a standardised way.

cardiopulmonary exercise test

Diagnostic Test

To our knowledge, this is the first study to perform CPET's in Turner Girls aged <18 years

Other names: CPET, cyclo-ergometry

Primary outcomes

  1. VO2 max

    Time frame: Whitin a week after the CPET

    VO2 max is the maximum volume (V) of oxygen (O2) your body can process during exercise

Secondary outcomes

  1. Bloodpressure

    Time frame: Whitin a week after the CPET

  2. Heart rate

    Time frame: Whitin a week after the CPET
