No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We have developed a pre-operative educational / counselling booklet with the focus on informing parents / patients about the different stages before, during, and after cardiac surgery that they will encounter; both chronologically and emotionally. With this approach and study our objectives are:

1\. To provide anticipatory guidance for parents to decrease parental stress and improve parental experience and preparedness, thus involving the parent as a partner in caring for their child.

We hypothesize that this additional tool will improve parental satisfaction in regards to being prepared for their child's heart surgery.
