Abstract
Purpose: The current study aimed to determine the prevalence of specific psychiatric disorders, identify predictors associated with these disorders, and assess the quality of life (QoL) among children with congenital heart disease.
Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study was conducted in the National Heart Institute outpatient clinics. It included 204 children with structural congenital heart defects (CHD). In addition to assessing QoL with the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory scale, the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview for Children and Adolescents was utilized to identify psychiatric disorders in the children studied.
Results: Children with CHD were at increased risk for mood and anxiety disorders. They were also more susceptible to obsessive-compulsive disorder than the comprative healthy group. In children with CHD, the cyanotic group demonstrated a greater decrease in QoL than the acyanotic group.
Conclusion: Children with CHD have an increased risk of psychiatric disorders and a lower overall QoL score.
目的：本研究旨在确定先天性心脏病患儿中特定精神障碍的患病率，识别与这些障碍相关的预测因素，并评估其生活质量（QoL）：这项横断面比较研究在国家心脏研究所门诊部进行。方法：这项横断面比较研究是在国家心脏研究所门诊进行的，包括204名患有结构性先天性心脏缺陷（CHD）的儿童。除了使用儿科生活质量量表评估儿童的生活质量外，还使用了儿童和青少年迷你国际神经精神访谈来确定研究儿童的精神疾病：结果：患有先天性心脏病的儿童患情绪和焦虑症的风险增加。结果发现：患有先天性心脏病的儿童罹患情绪和焦虑症的风险更高，他们也比正常健康儿童更容易患强迫症。在患有先天性心脏病的儿童中，发绀组的 QoL 下降幅度大于无绀组：结论：患有先天性心脏病的儿童患精神疾病的风险更高，总体 QoL 分数更低。
