The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of high-calorie density formula (HDF) and standard formula (SF) in infants with congenital heart surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there any difference in nutritional status between both groups after 3 months? 2. Is there any difference in calorie intake per day between both groups during hospitalization? 3. Is there any difference in clinical outcomes (mortality, duration of using mechanical ventilation, length of stay, and events of side effects) between both groups? A group of participants will be given HDF (1 kcal/ml) from enrollment until three months. Researchers will compare them to the group of participants who are given SF (0.67 kcal/ml) to see if there is any difference in nutritional status, calorie intake, and other clinical outcomes between the two groups.
