dc.description.abstractPurposeThe purpose of this study was to determine transition readiness of adolescents with chronic heart disease to adult care. MethodsThe sample of the study comprised 113 adolescents between the ages 12 and 18 years with chronic heart disease. Transition readiness was assessed by the Transition-Q self-administered tool. ResultsThe Transition-Q mean score was 63.0 (range=31-92). The self-management skills of the adolescents increased significantly in direct proportion to their ages. Most of the adolescents had a lack of confidence about medication management and communicating with healthcare providers. No significant difference was detected between boys and girls in terms of total and individual items' scores. Practice ImplicationsTransition readiness should be assessed to understand transitional requirements of adolescents with chronic heart disease and to plan appropriate nursing interventions accordingly.en_US
