Abstract
The purpose of this study was to prospectively study inpatients admitted for failure to thrive during their first year of life. Twelve infants with failure to thrive were studied and compared with 17 healthy controls. Mothers and infants with nonorganic failure to thrive scored lower on the Nursing Child Assessment Feeding Scale, reported more change in their lives, and less social support. The need for further research is discussed and suggestions for beginning level interventions are made.Entities:
