What is a PDA closure, and how does it work?
A PDA closure procedure is used to seal a persistent gap between the two main blood vessels emerging from the heart. It typically shuts down soon after birth. If it remains open, it is known as a patent ductus arteriosus. The doctors can close this opening with a catheter and a plug. It is a minimally invasive procedure. However, in some cases, open heart surgery may be advised. A surgeon makes a small cut between the ribs to reach the child's heart during open heart surgery. The opening is closed with stitches or clips.
What medical conditions can be treated through PDA Closure?
PDA closure is a typical procedure performed to correct a condition known as patient ductus arteriosus. It is a congenital heart defect that causes symptoms like:
- Cyanosis- A condition in which the skin turns blue due to lack of oxygen
- Extreme Fatigue
- An increased pace of breathing
- Easy susceptibility to Infections
- Poor weight gain
What is the recovery process after a PDA Closure?
After a PDA closure, it only takes one week for the patient to get back to their normal routine. However, they may be advised to take certain precautions and take the prescribed medications afterward. Regular follow-ups are also advised.
