“…Similar to previously published studies, we found that mental health comorbidities were associated with lower resilience scores. 20 , 41 We also found that lower perceived socioeconomic status was associated with lower resilience, similar to other previously published data. 6 The positive impact of social support that has been reported was evident in our sample, as we found higher resilience in patients with CHD who attended CHD camps or support groups.…”

“… 17 Studies in heart‐healthy individuals and adolescents with CHD showed that those who are less resilient have a higher prevalence of mental health challenges, with a higher incidence of suicide attempts and depressive symptoms. 18 , 19 , 20 Taken together, the importance of studying and promoting resiliency for individuals with CHD is clear and imperative.…”

Background Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a life‐long disease with long‐term consequences on physical and mental health. Patients with CHD face multifaceted physical and psychosocial challenges. Resilience is an important factor that can be protective and positively impact mental health. We studied resiliency and its associated factors in teenagers and young adults with and without CHD using a social media–delivered survey. Resilience was measured using the 25‐item Connor‐Davidson Resilience Scale, a validated metric with a historical mean of 80.4/100 in the general adult population. Methods and Results Individuals with and without CHD, aged 10 to 25 years, were prospectively recruited on social media to complete an online survey. The survey was completed from January to February 2022. Respondents provided information on their demographics and CHD details (where applicable) and completed the Connor‐Davidson Resilience Scale. As a group, participants with CHD had higher resilience scores compared with same‐aged healthy individuals (65.3±16.1 versus 55.4±13.8; P <0.001). For both cohorts, sex, race, and age were not associated with differences in resilience score. For individuals with CHD, lower resilience was associated with more hospital admissions, lack of exercise, presence of a mental health diagnosis, and no participation in support groups or disease‐specific camps. Conclusions Young people with CHD had higher resilience than individuals without CHD in our sample. We identified several factors, both modifiable and nonmodifiable, that are associated with higher resilience. Awareness of resiliency and its contributors in the population with CHD may assist medical teams in improving patient physical and psychological well‐being.

“…Unfortunately, the interventions were not found to be highly efficacious, 69 but mental health interventions in adults with heart disease have demonstrated some successes to build upon. 70 Cognitive behavioural therapy and positive-psychology based interventions in particular have shown promise in adult heart disease populations. 14 Therefore, examination of such intervention effects on both psychological and cardiovascular outcomes in paediatric single ventricle heart disease should be priorities for research study in the coming years.…”

Background: Patients with single ventricle heart disease are living into adulthood due to medical and surgical advancements but have significant physical comorbidities and an increased risk for psychological comorbidities compared to healthy subjects or those with other CHD diagnoses. This study aimed to systematically review psychological functioning in paediatric single ventricle heart disease. Methods: Literature was searched using PubMed, Embase, PsycInfo, CINAHL Complete and Scopus. Peer-reviewed articles that included patients ages 0–25 years with single ventricle heart disease, and quantitative measures of psychological outcomes were included. Meta-analysis using a fixed-effect model was conducted for internalising and externalising t-scores, utilised by the Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist. Results: Twenty-nine records met the criteria for inclusion. 13/24 studies demonstrated increased risk for internalising disorders, such as anxiety/depression; 16/22 studies demonstrated risk for externalising disorders, such as attention or behavioural problems. Meta-analysis of four studies revealed that paediatric single ventricle heart disease patients had no significant difference in internalising and externalising t-scores compared to normative values. Conclusions: The current review demonstrates the need for further studies to better understand psychological functioning in patients with single ventricle heart disease, with a majority of studies showing increased risk for psychological problems despite no difference seen in a small meta-analysis. This summary of the literature underscores the need for regular psychological screening, earlier intervention and integrated mental health therapies in paediatric single ventricle heart disease.
