Building Transition Readiness Skills for Adolescents and Young Adults with Congenital Heart Disease

(IRB#: IRB_00156291)

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common birth defects with most major effects diagnosed in infancy. Because there is no cure for CHD it is a lifelong chronic illness. Research is needed to understand the needs of people with CHD as they transition from child to adulthood. This information will improve the care and quality of life for people with CHD.
