Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Closure – A Minimally Invasive Heart Repair

Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) Closure Introduction
Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) closure is a procedure to close a blood vessel that should have closed soon after birth but remains open. This vessel, called the ductus arteriosus, connects the heart’s two main arteries and can cause abnormal blood flow if left open. Closing the PDA helps improve heart function and prevent complications.

How PDA Closure is Performed and Tools Involved
PDA closure is usually done using a minimally invasive catheter-based technique. A thin tube called a catheter is inserted through a vein, often in the groin, and guided to the heart and PDA using X-ray imaging. Through the catheter, a special device or coil is delivered to block the open vessel and stop abnormal blood flow. The closure device expands inside the PDA to seal it permanently. The procedure is monitored carefully with imaging to ensure proper placement. This method avoids open-heart surgery and reduces recovery time.

Why it’s done?

• To prevent heart failure caused by extra blood flow through the PDA.
• To reduce the risk of lung infections and high blood pressure in the lungs.
• To avoid complications such as endocarditis (infection of the heart lining).
• To improve growth and development in infants and children affected by PDA.
