Figure 1 Weight-for-age z scores at birth and at the time of the bidirectional Glenn (BDG) procedure are shown. There was a significant trend toward the lower end of the growth curve over time.

Daily weight gain (in grams per day) for individual patients between birth and BDG is shown. The dotted line indicates the recommended weight gain per day according to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) growth curves. BDG, Bidirectional Glenn procedure.
