Abstract

At 6 years of age, patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome had mean age-adjusted z-scores for weight and height below the normative population, and body mass index was similar to the normative population. Males had the greatest increase in z-scores for body mass index.

Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00115934.

Keywords: growth; hypoplastic left heart syndrome; pediatrics; risk factors.

Each mean is based on all data available at the respective time point. Error bars represent one standard deviation. Age at surgery (months): Norwood 0.2±0.4; stage II 4.7±1.8; Fontan 33.8±9.6.
