J Perinatol 2024:10.1038/s41372-024-02052-9. [PMID: 38997403 DOI: 10.1038/s41372-024-02052-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 06/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
IMPORTANCE Transcatheter closure of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is being increasingly adopted as an alternative to surgical PDA closure in preterm infants. OBJECTIVE To develop rigorous clinical practice guideline recommendations on procedural PDA closure in preterm infants. METHODS The principles of the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) Evidence-to-Decision (EtD) framework were used to develop the guideline recommendations. An e-Delphi survey of 45 experts was conducted and recommendations that reached ≥75% agreement were accepted as consensus. MAIN RECOMMENDATIONS Procedural PDA closure may be considered in extremely preterm infants (<28 weeks gestational age) requiring invasive mechanical ventilation >10 postnatal days and confirmed to have a large hemodynamically significant PDA, at centers with high local rates of death and/or bronchopulmonary dysplasia (conditional recommendation). If sufficient institutional expertise is available and patient characteristics are suitable, transcatheter PDA closure may be considered as the preferred approach over PDA ligation (conditional recommendation).

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.

Evaluation of the association between patent ductus arteriosus approach and neurodevelopment in extremely preterm infants. J Perinatol 2024; 44:388-395. [PMID: 38278962 DOI: 10.1038/s41372-024-01877-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Assess if unit-level PDA management correlates with neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 18-24 months corrected postnatal age (CPA) in extremely preterm infants. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective analysis of infants born at <29 weeks (2014-2017) across two units having distinct PDA strategies. Site 1 utilized an echocardiography-based treatment strategy aiming for accelerated closure (control). Site 2 followed a conservative approach. PRIMARY ENDPOINT NDI, characterized by cerebral palsy, any Bayley-III composite score <85, sensorineural/mixed hearing loss, or at least unilateral visual impairment. RESULTS 377 infants were evaluated. PDA treatment rates remained unchanged in Site 1 but eventually reached 0% in Site 2. Comparable rates of any/significant NDI were seen across both sites (any NDI: 38% vs 36%; significant NDI: 13% vs 10% for Site 1 and 2, respectively). After adjustments, NDI rates remained similar. CONCLUSION PDA management strategies in extremely preterm newborns showed no significant impact on neurodevelopment outcomes at 18-24 months CPA.

Abstract
The burden of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) continues to be significant. In view of marked differences in preterm infants versus more mature, term counterparts (viewed on a continuum with adolescent and adult patients), mechanisms regulating ductal patency, genetic contributions, clinical consequences, and diagnostic and treatment thresholds are discussed separately, when appropriate. Among both preterm infants and older children and adults, a range of hemodynamic profiles highlighting the markedly variable consequences of the PDA are provided. In most contemporary settings, transcatheter closure is preferable over surgical ligation, but data on longer-term outcomes, particularly among preterm infants, are lacking. The present review provides recommendations to identify gaps in PDA diagnosis, management, and treatment on which subsequent research can be developed. Ultimately, the combination of refined diagnostic thresholds and expanded treatment options provides the best opportunities to address the burden of PDA. Although fundamental gaps remain unanswered, the present review provides pediatric and adult cardiac care providers with a contemporary framework in PDA care to support the practice of evidence-based medicine.
