US registry for babies considering PDA closure
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study keeps a national record of babies with a heart connection called a PDA who are being considered for closure using a catheter procedure. It may help doctors improve how they choose treatment and devices for babies with different health needs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a PDA (a heart blood-connection present after birth)
- A heart doctor feels a PDA closure procedure is indicated for you
- Your weight at the time of the device procedure must be under 2 kilograms
- You must be at least 3 days old when the device procedure happens
- You should not already have aortic narrowing (coarctation) or left lung artery narrowing

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares an early procedure to close a heart vessel called the ductus arteriosus versus careful observation alone in very low-birth-weight preterm infants. It aims to see whether closing the vessel early can improve outcomes and be done safely.
This study looks at how well children do when their PDA is closed using a catheter (a thin tube through a blood vessel). It helps doctors understand the best ways to treat this common heart condition in kids ages 6 months to 16 years.
This study looks at how closing a heart valve problem (patent ductus arteriosus, or PDA) using a catheter procedure affects how your heart chambers change shape and work. Researchers want to understand if this minimally invasive procedure improves heart function.
This study checks how well and how safely the Occlutech PDA Occluder works over time to close a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). You may be considered if your PDA can be treated with this non-surgical device and you can return for follow-up visits.
This study uses ultrasound to see if a heart blood vessel called the ductus arteriosus has closed after treatment in premature infants. It aims to find a better way to monitor the response to treatment without X-rays.
This study follows patients who had a small heart device (HeartR PDA Occluder) placed to close an opening in their heart called a PDA. Researchers will check how well the device is working and track the patient's health over time.
