AbstractCongenital Heart Defects (CHDs) are associated with different patterns of malnutrition and growth retardation, which may vary worldwide and need to be evaluated according to local conditions. Although tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is one of the first described CHDs, the etiology outcomes in growth and development of TOF in early age child is still unclear in most cases. This study was designed to investigate the growth retardation status of Chinese pediatric TOF patients under 5 years old. The body height, body weight and body mass index (BMI) of 262 pediatric patients (138 boys and 124 girls) who underwent corrective surgery for TOF between 2014 and 2018 were measured using conventional methods. The average body height, body weight and BMI of the patients were significantly lower than WHO Child Growth Standards, while the most affected was body height. Meanwhile, higher stunting frequency and greater deterioration of both the body height and weight happened in elder age (aged 13–60 months) rather than in infant stage (aged 0–12 months) among these patients. Our results confirmed that intervention should be given at early age to prevent the growth retardation of TOF patients getting severer.

Objetivo: descrever os registros de crescimento e desenvolvimento realizados  pelos enfermeiros na consulta de enfermagem de crianças menores de dois anos em unidades de saúde da família (USF). Métodos: Estudo documental com abordagem quantitativa que analisou prontuários e cadernetas de saúde da criança (CSC)  que tiveram consulta de enfermagem no período de janeiro a fevereiro de 2012 em quatro USF de Cuiabá-MT. Resultados: Dos 22 prontuários analisados, 100% tinham anotações de peso e estatura, 59,1% dos registros de desenvolvimento estavam incompletos e não se observou a presença de gráfico de crescimento e desenvolvimento (CD) nos prontuários. Todas as CSC tinham registros nos gráficos de peso e estatura e em 86,4% delas havia anotações dos marcos de desenvolvimento. Conclusão: A ausência de registros adequados de CD inviabiliza a identificação de situações de risco e o planejamento de ações para assistência à criança e sua continuidade.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> The massive use of technology can be leveraged to facilitate access to growth and development programs for children. Existing programs supporting such initiatives for children younger than three years are inadequate and not accessible to most families. In most cases, primary caregivers are unable to identify delayed milestones in their children’s growth and development due to inadequate information. They therefore often report the cases when they have become very severe and difficult to reverse. In order to promote early identification of possible developmental delays, African Population and Health Research Center together with Val Partners will develop, implement and evaluate the use of mobile phone technology to help caregivers track their children's developmental outcomes.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> The study will employ a quasi-experimental design and will use a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative and qualitative methodologies. In one arm, 110 caregivers will be trained on the use of a mobile phone application to assess child growth and development. The other arm, with 110 caregivers, will receive standard care provided by community health volunteers. Child developmental outcomes will be assessed in both arms. Feasibility of the intervention will be assessed qualitatively. Performance data will be compared across the two arms using mixed linear models to assess the effect of the intervention on child development.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The findings are expected to provide evidence on whether the intervention is feasible and has an effect on child developmental outcomes. The results will inform the scalability and sustainability of the project.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Trial Registration: </strong>The trial has been registered with the Pan African Clinical Trial Registry (www.pactr.org) database (ID number: PACTR201905787868050).<strong></strong></p>
