Data from the Pediatric Cardiomyopathy Registry indicate that nearly a quarter of children with dilated cardiomyopathy are malnourished at presentation, while pooled estimates from adult heart failure populations report a malnutrition prevalence approaching half of all patients, with malnutrition independently associated with increased mortality.\n\nThis cross-sectional study will include children aged 1 month to 18 years with an established diagnosis of cardiomyopathy confirmed by echocardiography. Nutritional status will be assessed using anthropometric measurements (weight, height, MUAC, BMI-for-age z-scores), the STRONGkids screening tool, biochemical markers, and dietary assessment.
