Abstract

Nutrition is fundamental for ensuring adequate energy for basal metabolism, growth, and physical activity. Infants and children posses high metabolic rates and are at risk for developing deficiencies of energy. Infants and children with congenital heart disease (CHD) are at significant risk for developing such energetic imbalance due to increased expenditure of energy, and poor or inadequate nutrition. Energetic imbalance leads to the development of malnutrition. The prevalence of malnutrition and growth failure in children with heart disease is high. Approximately 60% to 70% of infants hospitalized with congenital heart disease exhibit failure to thrive as a result of insufficient nutrient intake and or absorption. The optimal nutritional support should provide sufficient energy and protein not only to prevent breakdown or catabolism of protein and to maintain body composition and weight, but also to restore deficits and permit growth toward genetic potential. Nutritional strategies depend on age, type of heart defect, hemodynamic disturbances, surgery, and nutritional status.
