Surfactant and patent ductus arteriosus

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2010
To investigate the relationship between surfactant replacement therapy and the development of a haemodynamically significant ductus arteriosus.All premature infants at 28-32 wk gestation with a clinical diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome were retrospectively reviewed and subdivided into two groups; intubated, mechanically ventilated and ...

The physiopathology of the patent ductus arteriosus

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2009
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) remains a frequent problem for the very low birth weight infants. Many questions about the role of PDA, the best method of diagnosing it and the appropriate timing of treatment have been, at time, not completely answered.

Treatment of patent ductus arteriosus

Seminars in Neonatology, 2003
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) continues to be one of the most common problems found in premature infants. The incidence is inversely related to gestation, but may be reduced by use of antenatal steroids, lower volume fluid regimen and judicious use of phototherapy.

Genetics of patent ductus arteriosus

Basic Research in Cardiology, 1975
A genetic study of 119 correlative cases of patent ductus arteriosus has been performed. The isolated cases showed female predominance, but there was a three times higher risk for the sibs of male cases, suggesting a multifactorial causative mechanism.

Persistent Patent Ductus Arteriosus

International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 1991
Two observations about the ductus arteriosus are established: most normally developed infants will have a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) at the time of delivery, and most fullterm infants will have anatomic obliteration of the ductus lumen by 3–6 months of age.

Phototherapy and Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Pediatrics, 1987
To the Editor.— Rosenfeld et al1 recently reported a positive relationship between phototherapy exposure and patent ductus arteriosus in small premature infants.

Stenting of the Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Interventional Cardiology Clinics
Since PDA stenting was first attempted in the early 1990s, significant technical advancements have improved outcomes and some centers have even transitioned to exclusive PDA stenting for all infants with duct-dependent pulmonary circulation. In addition to its use in infants with duct-dependent pulmonary circulation, PDA stenting has also been adapted ...
