The evaluation of right ventricular workload is sometimes complicated in patients after right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction (RVOTR) because both stenotic and regurgitation lesions are involved. In this study, we modified the right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) and evaluated the relationship between the modified RVSWI (mRVSWI) and patient prognosis after RVOTR.We enrolled 69 patients who underwent RVOTR (the RVOTR group), including those who needed early reoperation (early reoperation subgroup) and those who did not (follow-up subgroup), and 13 age-matched control participants (control group). Based on the catheterization results 1 year after RVOTR, we compared the mRVSWI between these groups. Additionally, we evaluated the influence of the mRVSWI on the reoperation avoidance rate and survival.The mRVSWI in the RVOTR group was significantly greater than that in the control group (17.7 ± 8.6 vs. 11.0 ± 2.7 g·m/m
