We have used the Mesh terms: "quality of life", "congenital heart disease", "children". Overall, children with cardiovascular disease viewed lower quality of life than healthy kids throughout all age groups. As perceived by moms and dads, total quality of life was not substantially various in children with cardiovascular disease, however kids with more extreme cardiovascular disease have worse physical and also psychosocial lifestyle. As a consequence, the examination of QOL becomes a vital element in the monitoring of youngsters with CHD and their families. Clinicians must consider the restricted capacity of caregivers to acknowledge the patients' subjective health perception, mainly in much less straight visible domains of health as well as functioning. The individual QL may activate the parental perception of their children QL.
