What are the Treatment Options for Recurrent PDA?

Treatment strategies for recurrent PDA include:
- Medications: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like indomethacin or ibuprofen can help close the ductus arteriosus.
- Surgical Intervention: In cases where medication is ineffective, surgical ligation may be necessary. This involves physically closing the ductus arteriosus.
- Minimally Invasive Procedures: Catheter-based techniques, such as coil embolization, are less invasive options to close the PDA.
- Supportive Care: Includes oxygen therapy, fluid management, and nutritional support to manage symptoms and ensure growth.
