Aim 3: Pilot Study of a Serious Game to Promote Transition Readiness Skills

This study involves testing a new video game designed to support adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD) in preparing to manage their health independently. The game aims to teach essential skills such as communicating with healthcare providers, understanding medical information, and managing appointments and medications. This small pilot study will evaluate the game's usability, acceptability, and its impact on participants' confidence and preparedness for managing their heart care. Feedback will be collected from adolescent participants, their parents, and healthcare providers, and the study will examine how the game influences communication during clinical visits.

Inclusion criteria:

- Patient with congenital heart disease, their parent, and their clinician

Exclusion criteria:

-Significant visual or cognitive impairment that would impede their ability to play the game and/or complete the study.
