Abstract

Background: Chronic lung disease (CLD) affects growth, secondary to a greater catabolic process and energy intake and insufficient pulmonary function. Objective: To analyze the influence of power procedures, content of nutrients and morbidity in postnatal growth during hospital stay. Material and methods: Cohort of premature 73, very low weight at birth, scanning is the rate of growth (RG) and percentage gain weight with regard to weight birth (PGW). The criterion of income accounted for mechanical ventilation for the two groups and development of CLD for study group. Parenteral nutrition, oral food and medical assistance. Applied nonparametric descriptive statistics and test for independent samples (body weight, RG and PGW) t. Differences in morbidity and percentages were to observe the influence of the proposed variables. Relative risk on the main factors determined partnership and possible causality. Results: The velocity of growth in the first week for both groups , was of -15 (± 1.3) and - 11.3 (± 1.3), g/kg/day, week 3: 12.7 (± 1.8) and 18.9 ± 1.9 (p < 0.1) and 4 week with 13.4 ± 0.9 and 18.6 (± 1) (p <. 0001). The PGW showed a 5% percentage loss and recovery of weight at birth from the second and third week. Conclusions: Multiple factors, hospital morbidity and insufficient food schemes promote deterioration in the growth rate and the percen
