Pediatric energy requirements vary with age and gender, with specific formulas used to estimate the needed caloric intake for different age groups. Physical activity levels further adjust these requirements, ranging from bed rest to vigorous activity.

Interventions

Formula fed - Check daily vol - Check timing and vol of feeds - Recipe and technique of formula - Increase strength - May need to add CHO or fat
Breastfed - ensure adequate ml over 24h - lactation consultant - top up with EBM after feeds - top up with fortified EBM - increase strength of formula - Pump to get an idea how much you're feeding

Malnutrition

Assess current & previous dietary intake against EER and EPR MUAC 3m-5y can be indicative of severe mal growth velocity Z scores (0-2 years) % wt loss

Faltering growth

<37 weeks= Fenton growth chart
2-18 years CDC chart (centre for disease control) >2 3rd and 97th percentile charts for the same parameters BMI- Z score charts
0-2 years WHO growth charts >37 weeks, 2nd and 98th percentile charts for wt for age, lth for age, head circumference for age
1. Crossing 2+ percentile bands (wt for age, ht for age) over 6 months 2. Growth persistently below 3rd percentile 3. Wt >2 percentiles below ht percentile 4. Wt for Ht <5th percentile
