Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine how the medications which are used to close the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants affect brain, kidney and gut blood flow when compared to infants that are not treated with these medications. The medications being used for PDA closure are indomethacin and neoprofen.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

All babies requiring medical treatment of their PDA will receive up to 3 doses of medication. For babies enrolled in the control group of this study, she/he will not be treated with either of these medicines.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Indo

Infants that are treated with indomethacin

INVOS Cerebral/Somatic oximeter

Intervention Type DEVICE

Placement of sensors on back, abdomen and forehead for measurement of perfusion beginning 1 hour prior to initiation of drug, during medical treatment for PDA and for 24 hours after the last dose. For control infants, monitoring will continue for 48 hours.

Neo

Infants treated with neoprofen

INVOS Cerebral/Somatic oximeter

Intervention Type DEVICE

Placement of sensors on back, abdomen and forehead for measurement of perfusion beginning 1 hour prior to initiation of drug, during medical treatment for PDA and for 24 hours after the last dose. For control infants, monitoring will continue for 48 hours.

Control

Infants without PDA

INVOS Cerebral/Somatic oximeter

Intervention Type DEVICE

Placement of sensors on back, abdomen and forehead for measurement of perfusion beginning 1 hour prior to initiation of drug, during medical treatment for PDA and for 24 hours after the last dose. For control infants, monitoring will continue for 48 hours.
