About this study

High energy formula more positively affect growth in infants with congenital heart disease compared to standard formula

Read the detailed description

Infants with congenital heart disease (CHD) usually show growth retardation as they can not intake enough calorie due to fluid restriction. We hypothesize that high energy formula more positively affect growth in infants with congenital heart disease compared to standard formula

Being tested
High energy formula, Standard formula
Keywords
Congenital heart disease, Growth,Neurodevelopment
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High energy formulaDietary supplement

    Also called High energy formula (Similac)

    The infants with CHD will be fed with high energy formula (Similac; 1kcal/ml)

  • Standard formulaDietary supplement

    The infants with CHD will be fed with standard formula (0.6-0.7 kcal/ml)
