Aim. Importance studying of clinical and biochemical signs within the nutrition status estimation and diet therapy effectiveness in children with congenital heart diseases (CHD) in newborn period. Methods. Clinical and morphometric data were studied in 52 newborn children with different variants of feeding (brest-feeding, adaptive milk formula, pre-milk formula), which created 3 groups: the first group – 23 children with CHD without heart failure (HF), the second one – 16 children with CHD and HF, the third one included 13 newborn children of the corresponding gestation age, weight and age without CHD and other congenital defects as well as general infectious. the data were analyzed on the 10th and 20th days of birth. Results. Feeding children with various diseases, including CHD with varying degrees of severity of HF, with breast milk is preferable and su൶cient up to 10 days of life, provided that the nutrients are not lower than the physiological level. After 10 days of life, children with CHD underwent dietotherapy correction, prescribed hypercaloric nutrition, taking into account somatometric data and the values of biochemical parameters (prealbumin, urea, transferrin). Diet therapy optimization was done after the 10th day and hypercaloric feeding was prescribed. Increase of calorific value was reached due to pre-milk formula prescribing as a main kind of feeding as well as supplements together with saving breast-feeding if it was available. To the 20th day all babies with CHD and HF had more proteins, fats, carbohydrates and calories. In such a case the level of proteins, urine, transferrin, prealbumin in hemolymph didn’t differ in comparing groups, having different nutrition supplement. Conclusion. Children with CHD with HF have high protein and energetic exigencies. Differential hypercaloric feeding prescribing taking in consideration somatometric data and biochemical signs (prealbumin, urine, transferrin) as a pre-milk formula allowed to grade energetic deficit and provide biochemical hemostasis.
