About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The aim of the Mind the Heart study is to document the feasibility of an online parent/child administered screening model for mental disorders (MDs) in Danish children and adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD). As MDs in children and adolescents with chronic somatic health issues are frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated, we further aim to develop a website with evidence based information on mental health in children and adolescents with CHD in order to promote knowledge and awareness among families and health professionals across sectors.

The group in the trial

  • Children and adolescents with congenital heart defects

    Children and adolescents between 5-17 years of age, born with a congenital heart defect, living in Denmark at the inclusion time. Participants are found though the Danish registries by a diagnosis of congenital heart defect. The diagnosis of Congenital Heart Defect must be given at one of the four University Hospitals in Denmark. These criteria are applied to ensure the validity of the diagnoses. Data will be analysed and grouped based on CHD subgroups and as a whole CHD group.

    Treatment: No-intervention
