This week we return to the world of ACHD when we review a recent German research paper on the prevalence of PTSD symptoms amongst the ACHD patient group. How common is this type of symptom observed in the ACHD patient group? What contributes to the high prevalence (17-20.5%) described in this work? What are the benefits of 'embedding' a mental health care worker in the ACHD clinic/program? What strategies can be employed in pediatric cardiology to potentially mitigate PTSD symptoms in our future ACHD patients? These are amongst the many topics reviewed this week with the Mount Sinai ACHD program clinical social worker, Ms. Meredith Kalbacker who also comments on this week's work.

For those interested, the book referenced by Ms. Kalbacker, Healing Hearts and Minds, can be purchased on Amazon:
