“…An elevation of this degree can be attributed to a change in body composition due to malnutrition, mainly the loss of fat which has relatively low metabolic activity. However, underweight infants have a normal BMR per unit of body weight predicted from height, and when the BMR of this patient was expressed on this basis it was still elevated (60.5 kca1/24 hr/kg predicted weight vs. normal 53.09 + 2.62 S D ) (13). Plasma thyroxine was normal.…”

“…Inadequate caloric intake, increased energy requirements caused by increased metabolism and malabsorption may all contribute. However, the most important cause of malnutrition in CHD is inadequate caloric intake [16]. Our study had this limitation since it did not analyze these contributing factors in detail.…”

“…No que se refere ao Shunt hemodinâmico e o grau de hipodesenvolvimento de crianças, o grau de retardo no desenvolvimento físico parece não estar associado ao grau de cianose, mas sim com a severidade do comprometimento hemodinâmico e hipoxemia (5,11,15,16) . Evidências científicas associam a presença de shunt da esquerda para a direita, hipertensão pulmonar, insuficiência cardíaca, hipoxemia crônica e o desenvolvimento de acidose metabólica ao grau do retardo no desenvolvimento físico de crianças com CCs (17) . Embora as CCCs resultem em um retardo mais pronunciado no desenvolvimento físico (14) , o estudo realizado por Salzer e cols (18) mostrou que crianças com Em relação ao hipodesenvolvimento físico de crianças com cardiopatias congênitas cianóticas, os dados mostraram que um grande percentual das crianças avaliadas apresentava um retardo no desenvolvimento ponderal (Peso/Idade), crescimento linear (Altura/Idade) e também no desenvolvimento pondoestatural (Peso/Altura quando comparado à tabela do NCHS).…”
