What are classifications of Failure to Thrive (FTT)?
Give this one a try later!
-Organic Failure to Thrive (FTT—25%): disease processes or congenital or
genetic disorders that inhibit feeding, digestion, absorption, or transport of
nutrients to tissues (e.g., CHD, GI disorders, neurologic problems, CF,
chronic UTIs, endocrine disorders, renal insufficiency, metabolic disorders).
-Nonorganic Failure to Thrive (FTT—50%): may be due to complex set of
interactive patterns between the infant and caregivers; lack relationship
between child and parent.
-Mixed Failure to Thrive (FTT-25%): components of organic and
nonorganic.
