About this study

Official title: Patent Ductus Arteriosus Post NICU Discharge in Premature Infants: A Prospective Registry

The purpose of this study is to track post-discharge outcomes on prematurely born infants who are discharged from the NICU with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Investigators plan to report on the spontaneous closure rate as well as the incidence of pulmonary and/or cardiac events in these infants. The goal is to identify risk factors associated with adverse outcomes in prematurely born infants who are sent home with a PDA.

Medical subject headings
Ductus Arteriosus, Patent

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of subjects that have a report of a spontaneous closure of PDA, medication intervention for closure of PDA or surgical intervention for closure of PDA

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of subjects with or without a closure of PDA that have heart failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, a need for respiratory support and death

    Measured: 18 months

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of subjects that have a report of a spontaneous closure of PDA, medication intervention for closure of PDA or surgical intervention for closure of PDA (time frame: 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02750228, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
