BACKGROUND: Few data are available on quality of life after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), and on its relationship to right ventricle function.
METHODS: Patients with at least 1 year of follow-up evaluation after surgery were studied. Right ventricle function was evaluated by the Doppler-derived myocardial performance index (MPI), and health-related quality of life (HRQL) was assessed by the Child Health Questionnaire, Parent Form-50. Findings were compared with those for an age- and sex-matched group of healthy children.
RESULTS: The study enrolled 35 successfully repaired ToF patients with 4.9 years (range, 3-7 years) of follow-up evaluation after surgery and 36 healthy children. The MPI demonstrated right ventricle dysfunction in patients compared with controls (0.34; range, 0.26-0.49 vs 0.2; range, 0.13-0.27; p < 0.01), although HRQL for the psychosocial domain was similar between patients and healthy children (summary score, 47.9; range, 45-52 vs 47.5; range, 44.5-50; p = 0.17). A trend for poorer physical area results was observed in patients (summary score, 44; range, 31-52 vs 48.5; range, 45.7-51.7; p = 0.06). Neither physical nor psychosocial summary scores for HRQL had any correlation with right ventricle MPI.
CONCLUSIONS: Right ventricle dysfunction is present in postoperative ToF patients. The psychosocial domain of HRQL is preserved after surgery. A trend for worse results was observed in the physical domain. The right ventricle function is not related to quality of life after surgical repair of ToF.
