Effectiveness of High-Energy Density Enteral Nutrition for Enhancing Physical Growth and Cognitive Brain Development in Infants With Congenital Heart Disease
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
High energy density enteral nutrition: High-energy-density enteral nutrition (100 cal/100 ml) will be administered to infants following surgery for congenital heart disease. The target feeding volume will be determined based on the infant's body weight (80-100 ml/kg), with the volume per feeding and frequency appropriately adjusted.
General energy density enteral nutrition: General energy density enteral nutrition (60-88 cal/100 ml) will be administered to infants following surgery for congenital heart disease. The target feeding volume will be determined based on the infant's body weight (80-100 ml/kg), with the volume per feeding and frequency appropriately adjusted.
Study summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of high and ordinary energy density enteral nutrition for improving physical growth and brain cognitive development in infants with congenital heart disease after operation, as well as evaluate the safety of interventions.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Weight-for-age z score (WAZ) — 6th month after discharge
WAZ is calculated according to the Chinese child growth curve and cut-offs .It is a statistical index used to assess the nutritional status of children. The physical examination will be conducted by a nurse, and the data will be recorded to one decimal place.
