Patients aged 60 years or older with congenital heart disease (CHD) had lower Physical Component Summary scores, higher Mental Component Summary scores, and lower anxiety scores compared to younger patients aged 40-59 years and 18-39 years. Older patients also reported higher satisfaction with life compared to patients aged 40-59 years.
The congenital heart disease (CHD) population now comprises an increasing number of older persons in their 6th decade of life and beyond. We cross-sectionally evaluated patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in persons with CHD aged 60 years or older, and contrasted these with PROs of younger patients aged 40-59 years and 18-39 years. Adjusted for demographic and medical characteristics, patients >= 60 years had a lower Physical Component Summary, higher Mental Component Summary, and lower anxiety (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety) scores than patients in the two younger categories. For satisfaction with life, older persons had a higher score than patients aged 40-59 years. Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02150603.
