PDA Occlusion Using NIRS
Sponsor: University of Louisville
Summary
Our study will be a prospective observational study of all patients in the Norton Children's Hospital NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) who undergo a transcatheter PDA occlusion or medical closure of PDA to compare the two populations regarding changes in organ perfusion determined by using NIRS monitoring to follow the regional saturation of oxygen (rSO2) of the cerebral and renal regions. We suspect that medical treatment will have no significant change in rSO2 as described in previous literature. We also suspect that transcatheter occlusion will have minimal effects on rSO2 and be comparable to medical therapy.
