Introduction: Growth retardation is the result of many factors, some direct, such as poor nutrition, but many indirect, the mother's lack of education, breastfeeding, place of residence, among others.
Objectives: Identify the factors that predict growth retardation in children under five years of age with congenital heart disease.
Methods: Cross-sectional study, access was obtained by collecting and reviewing data from the medical records of patients treated with congenital heart disease, the sample was 138 children. The binary logistic regression and linear regression model was extracted.
Results: The mean age of children with congenital heart disease was 18 months (SD=15.21). Girls are 2.95 times more likely to have growth retardation than boys (p=0.05). A decrease in age is less likely to suffer from growth retardation (p=0.017). However, children who were breastfed (p=0.017) and their urban-dwelling children have a lower risk of suffering from growth retardation (p=0.025). On the other hand, as the child's weight increases, the probability of having growth retardation increases 8.21 times (p=0.000). Finally, for each additional kilogram in weight, height can be expected to increase by an average of 3.79cm (p=0.001; R2=0.67).
Conclusion: The variables sex, age, breastfeeding, residence and weight for age are associated with growth retardation. There is a relationship between height and weight for age.
