Abstract
Transcatheter ductal closure has proven to be safe and effective to occlude the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in premature infants. We have developed a robust multidisciplinary PDA program. After gaining experience performing transcatheter ductal closure in the cardiac catheterization laboratory, we transitioned to performing the procedure at the patient's bedside in the neonatal intensive care unit using echocardiographic guidance. The bedside approach has the potential to expand this therapy to patients who currently undergo expectant PDA management because of lack of availability of this therapy, and allow for earlier referral, which will reduce time of exposure to this pathologic shunt.

Abstract
Persistent patent ductus arteriosus is a very common condition in preterm infants. Although there is no management agreed by consensus, despite numerous randomized controlled trials, hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus increases morbidity and mortality in these vulnerable patients. Medical treatment is usually offered as first-line therapy, although it carries a limited success rate and potential severe adverse events. In recent years, transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure has fast developed and become widely accepted as a safe and efficient alternative to surgical ductal ligation in extremely low birth weight infants >700 g, using most often the dedicated Amplatzer Piccolo Occluder device. This article aims to provide an appraisal of the patients' selection process, and a step-by-step description of the procedure as well as a comprehensive review of its outcomes.

Transcatheter Pulmonary Artery Banding in High-Risk Neonates: In-Vitro Study Provoked by Initial Clinical Experience. Cardiovasc Eng Technol 2023; 14:640-654. [PMID: 37580629 DOI: 10.1007/s13239-023-00674-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/16/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Very high-risk, ductal-dependent or complex two-ventricle patients with associated comorbidities often require pulmonary blood flow restriction as bridge to a more definitive procedure, but current surgical options may not be well-tolerated. An evolving alternative utilizes a fenestrated Micro Vascular Plug (MVP) as a transcatheter, internal pulmonary artery band. In this study, we report a case series and an in-vitro evaluation of the MVP to elicit understanding of the challenges faced with device implantation. METHODS Following single-center, retrospective review of eight patients who underwent device placement, an in-vitro flow study was conducted on MVP devices to assess impact of device and fenestration sizing on pulmonary blood flow. A mathematical model was developed to relate migration risk to vessel size. Results of the engineering analysis were compared to the clinical series for validation. RESULTS At median follow-up of 8 months (range 1-15), survival was 63% (5/8), and 6 (75%) patients underwent subsequent target surgical intervention with relatively low mortality (1/6). Occluder-related challenges included migration (63%) and peri-device flow, which were evaluated in-vitro. The device demonstrated durability over normal and supraphysiologic conditions with minimal change in fenestration size. Smaller vessel size significantly increased pressure gradient due to reduced peri-device flow and smaller effective fenestration size. CONCLUSION Device oversizing, with appropriate adjustment to fenestration size, may reduce migration risk and provide a clinically appropriate balance between resulting pressure gradient and Qp:Qs. Our results can guide the interventionalist in appropriately selecting the device and fenestrations based on patient-specific anatomy and desired post-implantation flow characteristics.
