Adults with congenital heart disease, especially the ones who require constant medical care, encounter many psychosocial difficulties. These difficulties also occur in the interventional departments of cardiology and cardiac surgery, where they often have to make important decisions, undergo cardiology interventions and cardiac surgeries, and more rarely they also have to deal with unexpected complications that can lengthen their hospitalisation duration considerably. The literature has also outline predictive factors when it comes to the psychological difficulties encountered in this population. For these reasons, the inclusion of the psychologist in this context is essential.
患有先天性心脏病的成年人，尤其是那些需要持续医疗护理的人，会遇到许多心理社会方面的困难。这些困难在心脏病学和心脏外科的介入科室也会出现，在这些科室里，他们常常不得不做出重要决定，接受心脏病学介入治疗和心脏手术，而且较少见的是，他们还必须应对可能会大幅延长住院时间的意外并发症。文献也概述了这一人群所遇到的心理困难的预测因素。出于这些原因，在这种情况下纳入心理专家至关重要。
