Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • weight gain at the 7th day (g)

    the 7th day body weight minus baseline body weight

    from the first day starting enteric feeding to the 7th days

  • the number of participants with feeding intolerance

    Feeding intolerance means participants have gastric retention, vomiting, diarrhea ect. lead to enteric feeding was stopped.

    from the first day starting enteric feeding to the 7th day

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Duration of mechanical ventilation

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

  • length of Cardiac Intensive Care Unit(CCU) stay

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

  • the number of participants with poor wound healing

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

  • the number of participants with necrotizing enterocolitis

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

Study Arms (2)

normal density formula (Neocate)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In control group,infants intake normal density formula (Neocate,67kcal/100ml) when starting enteral nutrition after operation and continue for 7days

Dietary Supplement: normal density formula (Necocate)

high density formula (Infatrini)

EXPERIMENTAL

In the intervention group,infants intake high density formula (Infatrini, 100kcal/100ml) when starting enteral nutrition after operation and continue for 7days

Dietary Supplement: high density formula(Infatrini)

Interventions

In control group,there are 32 infants

You may qualify if:

  • diagnosis of congenital heart disease from symptoms, signs, ultrasonic and imaging examination
  • aged from 1 day to 12 months
