RESUMEN
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent congenital malformation in children.With the improvement of the diagnosis and treatment of CHD, most children can survive to adulthood without suffering cardiovascular diseases.However, relevant research suggests that health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of some children with CHD after surgery still differs from that of healthy children of the same age.Based on a brief review of the concept of HRQOL, effective evaluation tools and the research status at home and abroad, disputes among relevant research conclusions in different countries or regions were discussed in this article.The influence of the child, family and diagnosis and treatment on postoperative HRQOL of children with CHD was analyzed.Approaches and response plans were put forward to improve postoperative HRQOL.In addition, the limitations of past research were pointed out, and suggestions were made on future research methods, tools and directions in this field.It′s hoped that this study can provide valuable information for CHD diagnosis and treatment and reference for follow-up research.
