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.
先天性心脏病(CHD)患者群体中,60 岁及以上的老年人数量不断增加。我们对 60 岁及以上 CHD 患者的患者报告结局(PROs)进行了横断面评估,并与年龄在 40-59 岁和 18-39 岁的年轻患者的 PROs 进行了对比。调整人口统计学和医疗特征后,≥60 岁的患者的生理成分综合评分较低,心理成分综合评分较高,焦虑(医院焦虑和抑郁量表-焦虑)评分也低于两个年轻组别的患者。在生活满意度方面,老年人的评分高于 40-59 岁的患者。注册号:ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02150603。
