Summary

Often, infants struggle to feed orally after surgery for congenital heart disease and may require supplemental feeding interventions at discharge. In this study, the investigators prospectively randomize infants to oral or nasal endotracheal intubation for surgery and assess postoperative feeding success.

Conditions
