Characteristics and Outcomes of Failure to Thrive in Pediatric Patients Referred to the King Abdulaziz Medical City Pediatric Clinic.

Background: Failure to thrive (FTT) in pediatric populations is a diagnostic challenge with implications for growth and development. Despite its prevalence, detailed epidemiological data, especially concerning organic versus non-organic etiologies, are sparse. This study examines the prevalence, characteristics, and outcomes of organic and non-organic FTT in a pediatric outpatient setting at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Jeddah.
