| Predictors of G-tube placement | Odds ratio | P-value |
|---|---|---|
| Prenatal diagnosis | 4.50 (0.98, 20.59) | 0.05 |
| ECMO | 11.26 (1.92, 65.89) | 0.01 |
| Proton pump inhibitor | 17.29 (3.98, 75.14) | <0.001 |
| Predictors of growth velocity | Coefficient | P-value |
| ECMO | − 2.7 (− 7.3, 2.0) | 0.26 |
| G-tube | − 6.5 (− 10.4, − 2.5) | 0.002 |
