Patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants.
Despite a large body of basic science and clinical research and clinical experience with thousands of infants over nearly 6 decades,(1) there is still uncertainty and controversy about the significance, evaluation, and management of patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants, resulting in substantial heterogeneity in clinical practice. The purpose of this clinical report is to summarize the ev...
متن کاملPatent ductus arteriosus in preterm neonates.
Failure of the ductus arteriosus to close within 48-96 hours of postnatal age results in a left to right shunt across the ductus and overloading of the pulmonary circulation. This is more likely to happen in premature neonates with respiratory distress syndrome. Deterioration in the respiratory status on day 3-4 in a ventilated neonate and unexplained metabolic acidosis may be the earliest indi...

301 VOLUME 48__APRIL 17, 2011 Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a major morbidity encountered in preterm neonates, especially in babies less than 28 weeks gestation or 1000g. Natural ductal closure is inversely related to gestational age and birth weight. The incidence ranges from 15% to 37% in newborn babies less than 1750 grams [1-3]. This is very high compared to incidence of 2/1000 in term ...
متن کاملPatent ductus arteriosus in the preterm infant.
The ductus arteriosus is a communication between the main pulmonary trunk and the descending aorta. In utero, the ductus arteriosus allows blood flow to be diverted from the high-resistance pulmonary circulation to the descending aorta and the low-resistance placental bed. Functional closure of the ductus arteriosus occurs soon after birth but can be delayed in premature infants and in certain ...
