Popis: | Background Transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) occlusion is feasible in small infants and may improve lung function in symptomatic patients. We aimed to describe transcatheter PDA closure in small infants including predictors of technical success and rate of complication and to identify factors associated with improved respiratory status after closure. Methods All patients in the NICU at our center who were referred for transcatheter PDA occlusion between 1/2010 and 11/2014 were retrospectively identified. Relevant details were extracted. Additionally, a modification of the respiratory severity score (RSS) (FiO2 × mean airway pressure) was used to characterize degree of pulmonary support before and at intervals after catheterization. Results Twenty patients were identified with median age of 96 days (13–247) and weight of 3.1 kg (1.7–4.7). The PDA was type F morphology in 14 (70%) patients. The PDA was successfully occluded in 16 (80%) patients. Ratio of minimum PDA diameter/length was >0.5 in all unsuccessful attempts and |
