| Application | prognosis |
| Objective | independent predictors of memory deficits |
| p Value | <0.001 |
| Conclusion | Adolescents and young adults with CHD, more than a decade since their last surgery, show significant verbal, attention, and working memory deficits over controls. To enhance patient memory/self-care, clinicians should explore ways to reduce anxiety, improve self-efficacy, and increase use of visual patient education material, especially in CHD males. |
