Health Literacy in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

Details and patient eligibility
About
Currently, both oral and written health education make certain assumptions about the health literacy of patients and their parents. The prevalence of health literacy issues is unknown in the adult congenital heart disease (CHD) population. Having a better understanding of a patient's and/or their parents' health literacy will help us develop appropriate education and teaching tools to meet the patient's and their parents' needs.
Full description
When providers speak with patients regarding their congenital heart disease, they currently have no assessment of the patient's basic health literacy. If providers are aware of the level of their patients' health literacy, they will be better equipped to provide care on the level the patient best understands.
