About this trial

A prospective non-randomized longitudinal design of 30-40 infants from initiation of oral feeding until discharge to track feeding changes as a potential indicator of surgical recovery.

Complex congenital heart disease requiring cardiac surgery during first month of life

Gestational age>=35 weeks at birth

Disqualifiers

No other major non-cardiac congenital anomalies,

No history of major neurologic insult

Not listed for a heart transplant,

Not intubated for >4 weeks post-surgery,

Trial design

  • Neoneur Feeding System

    Device

    The Neoneur Feeding System is placed between a nipple and a bottle, and used to measure feeding skill patterns.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To test the validity in use of feeding parameters to measure recovery progress for infants with complex CHD

A comparison of feeding patterns (oral cavity pressure changes in suck and swallow, and respiratory patterns) and changes as an infant recovers and determination if there is a greater than 60% concordance with behavioral survey measuring recovery.

Time frame
12 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Comparison of Neoneur Feeding system measurements seen in post surgical infants, to match clinical observation of suck, swallow, and breathing during oral feeding.

70% concordance between Neoneur Feeding Trace, and clinical observation

Time frame
12 months
