Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Postnatal intestinal function in cardiac infants. The overall goal of this proposal is to address a widespread health problem in the pediatric cardiac infant population - poor postnatal growth - through a collaborative effort between pediatric cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, neonatology, microbiology, and immunology. The hypothesis is that term neonates with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) who receive trophic breastmilk feeds in the pre-operative period will show improved gut function than neonates who were strictly NPO (nothing by mouth) in the pre-operative period.
