The Effects of Phototherapy in Preterm Infants Pda

Patent Ductus Arteriosus After Premature BirthHyper Bilirubinemia

The study was designed to assess whether chest shielding during phototherapy reduces the incidence of PDA, as assessed by serial echocardiographic examinations, in a population of extremely preterm infants born at lower 30 week gestation.

International Experience in Timing And Choices for Ductal Closure in Patent Ductus Arteriosus:INTERPDA...

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

The three options for the treatment of patent ductus arterioles (PDA) in preterm infants are conservative approach, pharmacological intervention and surgical ligation. There is not any randomized-controlled trial that demonstrates the superiority of these approaches in preterm infants.

Combined Lung Ultrasounds and Transthoracic Electrical Bioimpedance in Preterm Infants With Respiratory...

Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature InfantPatent Ductus Arteriosus After Premature Birth1 more

Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is among the most common complications of preterm birth, and typically becomes manifested soon after birth. A failure of the rapid reuptake of fetal lung fluids after birth, with subsequent liquid retention in the alveolar space, together with the deficit of surfactant proteins ensuing from lung immaturity represent the leading mechanisms for the development of RDS, which may require different levels of respiratory support. An increasingly used method for the evaluation of the neonatal lung is pulmonary ultrasound, which allows assessing alveolar fluids and other pathological conditions in a non-invasive manner, and has been shown to predict the need for respiratory support and for surfactant administration in preterm infants with RDS. However, this method requires specific training, is operator-dependent and does not provide a trend able assessment over time. Transthoracic electrical bioimpedance (TEB) allows continuous and non-invasive monitoring of static and dynamic thoracic fluids. It has been recently introduced in neonatal clinical practice to assess such hemodynamic parameters as cardiac output and also quantifies static thoracic fluids contents (TFC). This method provides continuous and non-operator dependent data on the pulmonary fluid status over time and does not require specific training. The combination of lung ultrasound with TEB could open to new diagnostic and prognostic perspectives in preterm infants with RDS.

Brain, Gut and Kidney Blood Flow During Medical Closure of PDA

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

The purpose of this study is to determine how the medications which are used to close the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants affect brain, kidney and gut blood flow when compared to infants that are not treated with these medications. The medications being used for PDA closure are indomethacin and neoprofen.

Timing of Closure of Patent Foramen Ovale Following Birth

Closure of the Foramen Ovale and Ductus Arteriosus

It is known that the foramen ovale closes in most infants during the first 6 months of life, however, most of the important papers in the field concentrated on observing infants with murmurs and following those with patent foramen ovale by echocardiography until 6-24 months. The purpose of this study is to observe the natural profile of closure of the foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus for the first 36 hours after birth. This understanding may help to avoid unnecessary treatment and exams for newborns with findings that are natural for their stage of development.
