Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Web-based Educational Intervention
This group of participants will be given access to a web-based educational resource in addition to the standard of care.
 Behavioral: Web-based Educational Intervention
A web-based educational tool, created for patients with congenital heart disease, will be given to patients using an ipad. This additional educational tool will be used with the standard of care visit with provider.
No Intervention: Standard of Care

Outcome Measures

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in transition readiness score, as measured by transition readiness survey [ Time Frame: baseline, 12 months ]
    The transition readiness survey is used to measure a participant's self-reported knowledge about their health and readiness to take charge of their healthcare. Each item is scored from 1 to 5, where 1 means "No, I do not know how" and 5 means "Yes, I always do this when I need to." The overall score is determined by calculating the sum of all questions on a 100 point scale. A higher score indicates greater readiness for transition.
