Abstract

Date Presented 3/30/2017

The objectives of this study were to characterize the feeding skills of infants with complex congenital heart disease and to measure physiological parameters during feeding. Results suggest clinical signs of decreased feeding skill and physiological changes that remain up to 60 min after the feeding.
