Patent Ductus Arteriosus Closure with MVP™ Plug: A Retrospective Review

Retrospective Review of PDA Closure with Medtronic MVP™ Micro Vascular Plug in Patients Weighing Less Than Two Kilograms

Protocol Description

This multi-center retrospective review studies outcomes of infants who weighed less than 2 kilograms (about 4.4 pounds) when their patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) condition was treated with a Medtronic MVP™ micro vascular plug. PDA is a condition that occurs when a hole in the aorta that allows blood to bypass circulation to the lungs does not close normally during fetal development. The study will review safety, efficacy, complications, and outcomes 6 months after the catheterization procedure.
