PDA DEVICE CLOSURE DONE ON TWO CHILDREN RECENTLY
Just Last week Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) device closures were performed on two children: 18 months old (10kg) and 4 years (15kg). With a hospital length of 48 hours, the surgeries were performed without difficulties. PDA is a defect between the two main heart-flowing pipes of the heart.This abnormality causes increased blood flow to the lungs.PDA can be closed by means of a device, operating or less invasively. The process entails using wires and tubing to move a button to the heart defect position.
After ascertaining closure, the button device is detached and it stays in place to secure and occlude the defect.
PDA device closure offers fast and safe recovery and limited hospital stay for definitive care.Options for procedures from minimally invasive to open-heart surgery are offered at Tristate Healthcare System.
