Cerebral Oxygenation during Different Treatment Strategies for a Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Abstract: Background: Preterm infants with a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) are at risk for fluctuations in cerebral blood flow, but it is unclear how different hsPDA treatment strategies may affect cerebral oxygenation. Objective: To compare regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) as measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants with a hsPDA treated with conservative management, indomethacin, or surgical ligation. Methods: This prospect… Show more

“…Our results suggest that, in the presence of an echocardiographically determined HSDA, cerebral and renal oxygen delivery is not compromised. Our results are in line with previous studies reporting similar cerebral [9] and renal [10] rSO 2 and FTOE in preterm infants with an HSDA compared with infants with a closed DA. They are also in line with a study reporting similar cerebral and renal rSO 2 and FTOE in infants with large-sized ducts compared with infants with moderate-sized ducts [11].…”

“…Previous studies using NIRS to assess organ oxygenation in preterm infants with PDA used different criteria for the determination of an HSDA and found conflicting results concerning the impact of PDA on pre- and postductal organ oxygenation [9,10,11,12]. The specific impact of echocardiographic parameters of hemodynamic significance of a PDA on regional tissue oxygen supply has not been investigated previously.…”

“…Measurement of the cerebral tissue oxygen saturation ( c StO 2 ) by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) allows noninvasive monitoring of oxygen delivery to the brain in preterm and term infants [1,2]. This technique may provide useful information for the prevention of brain damage during transition from fetal to neonatal life [3,4].…”

“…The variable pattern of cerebral blood flow velocity in immature infants with RDS implies a high risk of the development of intracranial hemorrhage [18] . NIRS has been used more recently to assess cerebral oxygenation in preterm newborns [20][21][22] . The ratio of oxygenated hemoglobin to total hemoglobin is measured as the StO 2 of brain tissue [23] .…”
