Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a persistent opening between the two major blood vessels leading from the heart. The heart problem is present from birth. That means it is a congenital heart defect. • An opening called the ductus arteriosus is part of a baby's blood flow system in the womb. It usually closes shortly after birth. If it remains open, it's called a patent ductus arteriosus. • . • • . • . • . • .#cardio #doctor #echo #echocardiagram #heart • #knowledge #neet . • . • . • . • A small patent ductus arteriosus often doesn't cause problems and might never need treatment. However, a large, untreated patent ductus arteriosus can let oxygen-poor blood move the wrong way. This can weaken the heart muscle, causing heart failure and other complications. • Treatment options for a patent ductus arteriosus include regular health checkups, medicines, and a procedure or surgery to close the opening • . • . • . • more knowledge subscribe my channel
