What this Trial Is About
This research aims to better understand exercise tolerance in girls aged 8 to 18 years with Turner Syndrome. It focuses on whether their maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) differs from standard values and how cardiovascular measures like heart rate and blood pressure change during exercise. Participants will undergo a cardiopulmonary exercise test using a standardized cycling method called cyclo-ergometry. This test evaluates how well their heart and lungs work during physical activity. During the study, girls will complete the exercise test, and researchers will measure VO2 max within a week after the test. They will also monitor heart rate and blood pressure changes. The study is designed for female participants only and includes safety monitoring related to the exercise testing.
