Objectives: We hypothesize that the patients after primary repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) can have poor nutritional outcomes and plan to identify risk factors to further stratify these patients.
Methods: Retrospective cohort of patients who had primary repair of CDH between 2000 and 2014 and had follow-up at our institution. Z scores (weight for age and weight for length) were calculated using the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention growth standards.
