Failure to Thrive: A Practical Guide.

Children with very low weight for age or height and those who do not maintain an appropriate growth pattern may have failure to thrive (FTT), also known as weight faltering.

Inadequate caloric intake is the most common cause of FTT, but inadequate nutrient absorption or increased metabolism is also possible.
