Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The SOPHRO-CARE trial aims to measure the impact of sophrology on exercise capacity of adolescents and young adults with congenital heart disease.

Investigator hypothesized that a series of group sessions of sophrology may improve the exercise capacity, in this population.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Adolescents and adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) have reduced exercise capacity compared to the general population.

Our recent randomized trial in a population of children and adolescents with asthma showed that sophrology improve lung function (NCT02114398). Sophrology, from the Greek "study of consciousness in harmony", is an adjuvant therapy, considered in healthcare as a relaxation technique, mainly based on breathing.

Investigator assume that adolescents and young adults (13-25 y.o.) with CHD who participate in a program of sophrology with structured group sessions will improve their exercise capacity as measured by the maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max), in comparison with a control group.
