Prostaglandin E1 in suspected ductus dependent cardiac malformation.
Fifty two sick neonates with major duct dependent cardiac defects were given short term intravenous infusions of prostaglandin E1 (alprostadil) in doses varying between 0.005 and 0.1 micrograms/kg/minute. The object of the study was to try to achieve an effective but safe regiment that could be instituted as soon as such a diagnosis was suspected. Effective clinical improvement was achieved at ...
متن کاملHistopathology of the ductus arteriosus after prostaglandin E1 administration in ductus dependent cardiac anomalies.
The histology of the ductus arteriosus was studied after prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) administration in 4 infants with ductus dependent cardiac malformations. Pronounced pathological changes were found in each instance. The changes consisted of oedema of the media with separation of medial components by clear spaces, pathological interruptions of the internal elastic lamina, and intimal lacerations,...
متن کاملOral prostaglandin E2 in ductus-dependent pulmonary circulation.
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was administered orally, in doses of 12-65 microgram/kg at intervals of 1-4 hours, to 12 neonates in whom the pulmonary circulation depended on patency of the ductus arteriosus. After an oral dose, both oxygen saturation (SaO2) and plasma PGE2 concentration increased consistently within 15-30 minutes, reaching values comparable to those during i.v. infusions. Treatment c...
متن کاملDilatation of the ductus arteriosus by prostaglandin E1 in aortic arch abnormalities.
Infants with aortic arch interruption of juxtaductal coarctation of the aorta may depend on patency of the ductus arteriosus to provide adequate lower body perfusion. In many such infants the ductus arteriosus constricts after birth, resulting in severe heart failure, poor systemic perfusion and acidemia. We infused prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) at a rate of 0.05--0.1 microgram/kg/min into seven infa...
