Study Summary

Failure to thrive and difficulty gaining weight is a sign of uncompensated congestive heart failure (CHF). Infants with Trisomy 21 and complete atrioventricular canal defects (CAVC) frequently develop uncompensated CHF and weight gain failure pre-operatively. A weight of 5 kg has been suggested as optimal for timing of CAVC repair. A delay in surgical repair often occurs if weight gain stalls and reaches a plateau prior to reaching 5 kg. A retrospective review performed by Kogon, et al, of children undergoing surgery for VSD at CHOA at Egleston recently reported that age and weight at surgery may not, however, be associated with adverse surgical outcome. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal timing for surgical correction of CAVC in Trisomy 21 infants based on reaching a plateau of failed weight gain despite maximal anti-congestive and nutritional therapy.
