About this trial

The objective is to understand how a population of adolescents - who have undergone diaphragm surgery within their first month of life (i.e. subjects who have been carriers of a rare impacting disease such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)) - engages in physical and sports activities and what can be the hindering factors as well as the factors facilitating these practices.

Based on self-questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, this research is a qualitative research in the field of human and social sciences.

The qualitative survey will make it possible to report on the experience of the disease of children and parents; in parallel, a complete medical evaluation of the subjects (clinical and para-clinical) will be carried out.

The analysis of the verbatim of the self-questionnaires and interviews with regard to the real physical capacities of the subjects, will be discussed.

Written consent from both parents allowing the collection of data from the child/adolescent

Written consent from the parent(s) agreeing to participate in the study by answering the questionnaires and the individual interview, for themselves and for their child

Possibility of accessing equipment to conduct a video-conference interview if necessary.

Disqualifiers

Parents or child/adolescent not understanding French

Parents under guardianship or child under legal protection

Trial population

All adolescents who had CDH surgery in the first month of life, without any other pathology, now aged 12-18 and followed up at the CDH Lille Reference Center, will be asked to take part in the study.
