What Conditions Require Prostaglandin Administration?
Prostaglandins are used to manage several congenital heart conditions, including: - [Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)](): Where the ductus arteriosus fails to close naturally after birth. - [Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA)](): Where the two main arteries leaving the heart are reversed. - [Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS)](): Where the left side of the heart is underdeveloped. - [Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)](): A combination of four heart defects that result in insufficient oxygenated blood reaching the body. - [Pulmonary Atresia](): Where the pulmonary valve does not form properly.
