Summary

This study is testing a mobile app called CHAMP that lets parents of children with complex congenital heart disease enter health data and upload photos or videos from home. The goal is to see if the app helps doctors monitor the child's condition remotely and improve communication with families. Up to 1,000 children and their parents will take part across multiple hospitals.
