Brief summary
High energy formula more positively affect growth in infants with congenital heart disease compared to standard formula
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
Interventions
The infants with CHD will be fed with high energy formula (Similac; 1kcal/ml)
The infants with CHD will be fed with standard formula (0.6-0.7 kcal/ml)
