Figure 1 Trends in Z-Scores for Weight Over Time

There was a significant decrease in z-scores for weight before bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt (BCPS) (p < 0.01). There was a significant increase in z-scores for weight in the pre-Fontan period (p < 0.01), which levels off after completion of the Fontan (p < 0.01).
