Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
(1) Establishment of a registry on heart failure in ACHD ("real world data") (2) Definition of predictors for morbidity and mortality (3) Implementation of measures for long-term improvement of the biopsychosocial situation of ACHD with heart failure or/and abnormal ventricular function (4) Development of hypotheses for prospective multicenter therapy studies

Secondary
