Associations between cardiorespiratory fitness, activity behavior, physical literacy and parental sports participation in children with a critical congenital heart disease
CRF is positively associated with physical activity, motivation and confidence in children with CCHD. Additionally, parental sports participation is associated with children's sports participation. These findings suggest integrating a physical literacy and family-centered approach in interventions aimed to enhance CRF in children with CCHD.
