Chinese Expert Consensus on Rehabilitation of Congenital Heart Disease in Children and Adolescents
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common congenital malformations in children.With advances of imaging technics,the detection rate of CHD is increasing nationwide in recent years,and the rate of complex CHD is decreasing year by year.After surgical,interventional or conservative drug treatment,about 90％ of children can survive to adolescence and adulthood,and comprehensive long-term evaluation and follow-up are thus required for these patients.Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment method including rehabilitation assessment,exercise training,nutritional consultation,psychological support,health education,risk factor control and other behavioral interventions.Previous studies have confirmed its safety and efficacy in improving the prognosis of children with CHD.Although the optimal treatment of CHD in various regions of China shows an increasing trend,CR is still in its infancy,and there is a lack of unified evaluation and rehabilitation programs.In order to promote the development and application of CR in the field of CHD in China,this consensus is formulated by the writing committee composed of experts in cardiac surgery,cardiology,intensive care medicine,pediatrics,rehabilitation medicine,sports/sports medicine,clinical nutrition,psychology and traditional Chinese medicine,the present consensus is in principle applicable to children and adolescents aged 0-18 years.
