This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Decreased physical activity and development of obesity are threatening the long term cardiovascular health of children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Little is known regarding physical activity and cardiovascular risk factors for developing coronary heart disease among children with CHD. We hypothesize that children with CHD have lower physical activity and higher prevalence of obesity when compared to healthy children. In addition, we hypothesize that psychosocial and environmental factors play important roles in determining physical activity among children with CHD. The main objectives of this study are to evaluate physical activity, obesity, and cardiovascular risk factors in pre-adolescent children with CHD, and to assess factors determining the physical activity in these children.

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 体力活动减少和肥胖的发展威胁着先天性心脏病（CHD）儿童的长期心血管健康。 关于CHD儿童发生冠心病的体力活动和心血管危险因素知之甚少。 我们假设与健康儿童相比，CHD儿童的体力活动量较低，肥胖患病率较高。 此外，我们假设心理社会和环境因素在决定CHD儿童的体力活动方面起着重要作用。 本研究的主要目的是评估青春期前CHD儿童的体力活动、肥胖和心血管危险因素，并评估决定这些儿童体力活动的因素。
