Oral Ibuprofen Versus Placebo in Treatment of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)in Preterm Infants

Patent Ductus Arteriosus After Premature BirthPatent Ductus Arteriosus Conservative Management

The management options of Patent Ductus Arteriosus are still controversial and differ between centers. Recently, conservative management has been gaining interest as the evidence of benefit from medical treatment in terms of mortality and morbidity is lacking. This study will compare oral ibuprofen (the standard treatment) with the conservative treatment, in terms of ductal closure and morbidity and mortality at discharge in preterm neonates less than 34 weeks.

Early Ibuprofen Treatment of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) in Premature Infants (TRIOCAPI)

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Very premature infants with a large ductus, selected by an early echocardiogram, will receive either ibuprofen or placebo before 12 hours of life. Follow-up will include repeated echocardiograms and cranial ultrasound at 36 hours, 14 days and 36 weeks of postconceptional age. The primary outcome will be survival without cerebral palsy at years.

MISA to NRDS:a Multicenter Study in China

Bronchopulmonary DysplasiaPatent Ductus Arteriosus3 more

BACKGROUND Treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome with exogenous surfactant and mechanical ventilation made millions of preterm infants survived in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Endotracheal intubation surfactant administration is related to invasive intubation and short periods of positive pressure ventilation and implies the risk of lung injury. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or NIPPV (Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation) with surfactant but without intubation may work synergistically. This randomized trial investigated a minimal invasive surfactant administration (MISA). To test the hypothesis that MISA increases survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) at 36 weeks' gestational age in very low birth weight infants. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS The Minimal Invasive Surfactant Administration (MISA) was a multicenter, randomized, clinical, parallel-group study conducted between July 1st, 2017, and November 30, 2018, in 8 level III neonatal intensive care units in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei province, China. The final follow-up date was March 30, 2019. Participants enrolled spontaneously breathing preterm infants born between 26.1 and 31.9 weeks' gestational age with signs of respiratory distress syndrome. In an intention-to-treat design, infants were randomly assigned to receive surfactant (Calf pulmonary surfactant, Double-Crane Pharmaceutical Co., China) either via a 5Fr nasogastric tube during CPAP/NIPPV-assisted spontaneous breathing (minimal invasive surfactant administration group, MISA group) or after conventional endotracheal intubation during mechanical ventilation (endotracheal intubation surfactant administration group, EISA group). INTERVENTION MISA via a 5Fr nasogastric tube with an ophthalmic surgery straight forceps.

Trial of Indomethacin Prophylaxis in Preterm Infants (TIPP)

InfantVery Low Birth Weight4 more

This trial was to determine whether giving low-dose indomethacin to infants weight 500 to 999 grams (approximately 1 to 2 pounds) at birth improves their survival without cerebral palsy or developmental problems at 18 to 22 months of age.

Second Course of Therapy for Resistant Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Patency of the ductus arteriosus (PDA) is functionally essential for fetal circulation, however persistence of ductal patency postnatally may have significant adverse hemodynamic effects in the neonate. Medical therapy for PDA predominantly involves the administration of one of two non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: indomethacin or ibuprofen. Both of these therapies have been shown to be successful in mediating ductal closure in approximately 70% of treated infants. However, the need for a second course of treatment for PDA closure remains quite common. The investigators hypothesize that, because of small differences between the two drugs, a greater percentage of infants who did not respond to a first course of therapy with indomethacin will respond to a second course with ibuprofen than to a repeat course of indomethacin. As such, the investigators aim to compare secondary therapy with a repeat course of indomethacin to secondary therapy with ibuprofen in infants whose ductus remained patent after a first course of therapy with indomethacin.

Comparison of 2 Different Indomethacin Dosing Protocols to Treat Infants Delivered at <28 Weeks...

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

The purpose of this study is to examine if a higher dose of indomethacin will increase the rate of ductus arteriosus closure in extremely premature infants without increasing the side effects. The long term objective is to find the optimal dosing of indomethacin for permanent closure of the Ductus and prevent the morbidity related to PDA and the complications of surgical ligation.

Addition of Acetaminophen in Standard PDA Management

Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Patent ductus arteriosus is a common morbidity in preterm infants and management of PDA varies among neonatologist. The investigators are conducting a randomized controlled trial to determine the rates of initial patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure after completion of a first treatment course.
