摘要：

Purpose: To determine whether adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) are better adjusted than adults with acquired heart disease (AHD). Methods: Twenty-five adults with CHD completed the Patient Adjustment to Illness Self Report (PAIS-SR). Results: CHD patients had good adjustment for Heath Care Orientation and Family Relations, but poorer adjustment for Vocational, Social and Domestic Environment, Sexual Relations, and Psychological Distress. Conclusions: The needs of CHD patients are not being met. (c) 2006 Society for Adolescent Medicine. All rights reserved.
