Transitional Care Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Prospective Quasi-Experimental Study to Evaluate Transition With a Heart, a Transition Project for Adolescents With Congenital Heart Disease and Their Parents With Focus on Disease Knowledge and Transitional Skills
The department of Congenital Heart Disease of the Ghent University Hospital (Belgium) developed a transition program dedicated to adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD): 'Transition With a Heart´ (TWAH). TWAH was developed based on the Dutch program 'On your own feet´, starting at the age of 12 years and continuing after transfer. The most vital core components include a general and individualized flowchart, adolescent-centred communication, a joined transfer consultation and an appointed transition coordinator. TWAH focuses on promoting disease knowledge, autonomy and skills development of adolescents with CHD. Interventions encompass the use of a communication-paper, autonomously talking to professionals, individualized education and skills development plan. Interventions were selected from the highest sources of scientific evidence currently available including (quasi-) experimental studies, narrative literature reviews and expert opinions. TWAH is the intervention in the conducted study. Hence, the intervention group are adolescents with CHD and their parents who are participating in TWAH. Adolescents and their parents who are transferred according to standard care (joined transfer consultation only) are identified as the control group and will be examined in the post test phase in order to be able to make comparisons with the intervention group. At baseline (the start of TWAH) participants of the control group already made the transfer to the adult ward. The investigators consider the following hypothetical scenario: - TWAH will have a positive influence on disease knowledge and transition experiences of the participants.
