Interactive Telehealth Solutions for Patients With Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review.
Review in CJC pediatric and congenital heart disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: As 95% of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) reach adulthood, the focus has shifted from early mortality to long-term morbidity, necessitating regular specialized follow-ups and more emphasis on health promotion. In this regard, telehealth could represent an innovative care method for live supervision and promoting lifestyle changes. This systematic review investigates interactive telehealth solutions including application program interfaces for children and adults with CHD. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) from January 1, 2013, to April 1, 2024, on interactive telehealth solutions for children and adults with CHD. Results: Of 16 included studies, 9 studies evaluated 318 pediatric patients with diagnosed CHD, 4 studies included 229 pediatric and adult patients with CHD, and 3 studies examined 188 adults. A total of 8 studies investigated teledevices: 5 explored mobile applications and 3 used wearables. Studies assessed telehealth interventions using maximum or peak oxygen consumption for physical performance, questionnaires for health-related quality of life, sleep, and well-being, and tracked emergency visits, intensive care unit stays, and disease complications. Additional measures included infant growth, body weight, and arrhythmias. Conclusions: The majority of studies indicate that telehealth solutions have a positive impact on cardiovascular health. To ensure medical care for these patients, the implementation of more high-quality, interactive, and live telehealth solutions beyond home monitoring is essential. It could offer the opportunity to promote early prevention strategies, such as improving fitness and behavioral changes while ensuring the safety of each individual.
