control group

Arm Description

This group consists of children who are fed orally according to their chronological age. The questionnaire form developed by the researcher and the parameters used in the evaluation of growth (height, head and chest circumference measurement) and Ankara Development Screening Inventory (AGTE) will be applied to the child and his / her family included in the specified group. Nutrition education prepared by the researcher will be given to the mothers of the children included in this group. After the nutrition training given to their mothers, the growth and development monitoring parameters of the child, body weight, height, head and chest circumference, will be repeated at regular intervals. Ankara Development Screening Inventory (AGTE) will be applied. The follow-up frequency of the hospitalized child after the operation will be determined and the measurements will be checked.

This group consists of children who receive nutritional support provided by oral food supplements, oral food supplements, enteral tube feeding and / or parenteral nutrition. The questionnaire form developed by the researcher and the parameters used in the evaluation of growth (height, head and chest circumference measurement) and Ankara Development Screening Inventory (AGTE) will be applied to the child and his / her family included in the specified group. Nutrition education prepared by the researcher will be given to the mothers of the children included in this group. After the nutrition training given to their mothers, the growth and development monitoring parameters of the child, body weight, height, head and chest circumference, will be repeated at regular intervals. Ankara Development Screening Inventory (AGTE) will be applied. The follow-up frequency of the child hospitalized after the operation will be determined and the measurements will be checked.

While collecting research data on the specified dates; Comparison group (KG) will be selected as many as the number of volunteers who want to participate in the research. No nutritional attempt will be made to the child included in this group. The parameters used in the evaluation of growth (height, head and chest circumference measurement) and the Ankara Development Screening Inventory (AGTE) will be applied to children aged 0-3 who are followed up due to congenital heart disease.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Body weight measurement of growth parameter
In order to determine the physical growth status of the babies, kilograms (in kg) will be measured by the researcher. These measurement results will be given as average Z scores ((kg) type and percentile values. Body weight is measured on an Oncomed electronic scale by removing the clothing and subtracting the dry weight of the ultra-prima brand diaper.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Height measurement of growth parameter
Height (in cm) will be measured by the researcher to determine the physical growth status of the babies. These measurement results will be given as average Z-scores (cm) type and percentile values. For height measurement, a head-foot board (infantometer) with a measuring tape is used.
Head circumference measurement of growth parameters
The head circumference (in cm) will be measured by the researcher to determine the physical growth state of the babies. These measurement results will be given as average Z scores (cm) type and percentile values. Head circumference measurement is made with an inelastic tape measure from the most protruding point of the occipital bone over the ear and over the line passing over the eyebrows.

Brief Summary
The Effect of Individualized Nutrition Training Given to the Families of Children with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) in the Post-Operative Period on their Growth and Development This study was conducted experimentally to determine the effects of individualized nutrition training given to mothers of children who had surgery for CHD on their growth and development.
Detailed Description
The Effect of Individualized Nutrition Training Given to the Families of Children with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) in the Post-Operative Period on their Growth and Development This study was conducted experimentally to determine the effects of individualized nutrition training given to mothers of children who had surgery for CHD on their growth and development. The data of the study were collected at Çukurova University Medical Faculty Balcalı Hospital Cardiovascular Surgery between 20/01/2021-30/06/2021. The research was conducted by interviewing the families of 42 children with congenital heart disease. Personal information form, growth parameters and Ankara Developmental Screening Inventory were applied to three groups formed as two experimental and control groups by randomization method. Family-centered care and individualized nutrition training were applied to the first experimental group who was fed orally and and the second experimental group orally and nutritionally fed. These trainings were about nutritional contents suitable for the age of the baby, the way of preparing the food and meeting the calorie needs of the baby. No training was given to the control group during the research process. The growth and development parameters of all three groups were evaluated and the effect of education was examined.
