Energy‐ and protein‐enriched formula improves weight gain in infants with malnutrition due to cardiac and noncardiac etiologies

We aimed to assess safety, tolerability, and improvement in weight gain with an energy- and protein-enriched formula (EPEF) in infants with poor growth.Infants aged 1-8 months with poor growth received EPEF for 16 weeks. Our primary objective was improvement in weight as measured by change in weight-for-age z-score (WAZ) and weight gain velocity (grams per day) ≥ median for age. Secondary objectives included improvement in other anthropometric...
