Poor weight recovery between stage 1 palliation and hospital discharge for infants with single ventricle physiology: an analysis of the NPC-QIC Phase II dataset.
The purpose of this study was to investigate change in weight-for-age z-scores (WAZ) and risk factors for impaired weight gain between stage 1 palliation (S1P) for single ventricle physiology and discharge. Data from the National Pediatric Cardiology Quality Improvement Collaborative Phase II database was analysed. Findings showed that nearly all infants lost weight after S1P, with little recovery by hospital discharge. At discharge, three-quarters of the infants were at-risk for impaired weight gain or had failure to thrive. Most risk factors associated with change in WAZ were unmodifiable or surrogates of disease severity.
