We compared physical functioning, mental health, and quality of life (QoL) patients with different subtypes congenital heart disease (CHD) in a large international sample investigated the role functional class explaining variance outcomes across defects.In cross-sectional Assessment Patterns Patient-Reported Outcome Adults Congenital Heart Disease-International Study (APPROACH-IS), we enrolled 4028 adult CHD from 15 countries. Diagnostic groups at least 50 were included these analyses,...
Background Conflicting results have been reported regarding employment status and work ability in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD). Since this is an important determinant for quality of life, we assessed a large international adult CHD cohort. Methods Data from 4028 (53% women) 15 different countries were collected by uniform survey the cross-sectional APPROACH International Study. Predictors limitations studied using general linear mixed models. Results Median age was 32 years...
Abstract Background Previous studies have found that sense of coherence (SOC) is positively related to quality life (QoL) in persons with chronic conditions. In congenital heart disease (CHD), the evidence scant. Aims We investigated (i) intercountry variation SOC a large international sample adults CHD; (ii) relationship between demographic and clinical characteristics SOC; (iii) cultural dimensions countries (iv) relative importance explaining QoL across countries. Methods APPROACH-IS was...
Objective First, to compare QOL and illness perceptions between patients with a Fontan circulation anatomically simple defects (ie, atrial septal [ASD] or ventricular [VSD]). Second, explore as mediator of the association congenital heart disease (CHD) diagnosis QOL. Design Cross-sectional observational study. Setting Twenty-four cardiology centers from 15 countries across five continents. Patients Four hundred thirty-five adult (177 258 ASD/VSD) ages 18-83 years. Outcome Measures were...
The congenital heart disease (CHD) population now comprises an increasing number of older persons in their 6th decade life and beyond. We cross-sectionally evaluated patient-reported outcomes (PROs) with CHD aged 60 years or older, contrasted these PROs younger patients 40-59 18-39 years. Adjusted for demographic medical characteristics, ≥60 had a lower Physical Component Summary, higher Mental anxiety (Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale-Anxiety) scores than the two categories. For...
Objectives To verify the reliability and validity develop an English version of instrument (Kuchi‐Kara Taberu Index ( KT Index)) to comprehensively assess intervene in problems with eating swallowing. Design Multicenter cross‐sectional study. Setting Nursing homes. Participants Individuals aged 65 older (mean age 88.3 ± 6.8; 80.0% female) who had lived a nursing home for longer than 1 month (N = 115). Measurements The index consisted 13 items: desire eat, overall condition, respiratory oral...
Background Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of mortality and associated with significant morbidity in adults congenital heart disease. We sought to assess association between HF patient-report outcomes Methods Results As part APPROACH-IS (Assessment Patterns Patient-Reported Outcomes Adults Congenital disease-International Study), we collected data on status patient-reported 3959 patients from 15 countries across 5 continents. Patient-report were: perceived health (12-item Short Form...
Background Health behaviours are essential to maintain optimal health and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications in adults with congenital heart disease. This study aimed describe disease 15 countries identify patient characteristics associated international sample. Design was a cross-sectional observational study. Methods Adults ( n = 4028, median age 32 years, interquartile range 25–42 years) completed self-report measures as part Assessment Patterns Patient-Reported Outcomes...
Physical activity is important to maintain and promote health. This of particular interest in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) where acquired should be prevented. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a minimum 2.5 h/week physical exceeding 3 metabolic equivalents (METS) achieve positive health effects. It unknown whether levels (PAL) adult CHD differ by country origin. 3896 adults recruited from 15 countries over 5 continents completed self-reported instruments,...
Although adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients encounter unique challenges related to social adaptation and mental health, only minimal research has been conducted on this functioning in Japanese ACHD patients. The aims of study were describe aspects the psychosocial determine factors influencing their health.Seventy-two (aged 18-39 years) 86 control participants completed 36-item Short Form Health Survey, a measure 4 self-report questionnaires measuring functioning:...
BackgroundIn recent years, patient-reported outcomes (PROs) have received increasing prominence in cardiovascular research and clinical care. An understanding of the variability global experience PROs adults with congenital heart disease (CHD), however, is still lacking. Moreover, information on epidemiological characteristics frailty phenotype older CHD minimal. The APPROACH-IS II study was established to address these knowledge gaps. This paper presents design methodology...
