RESUMO
Percutaneous catheter-based closure is increasingly utilized in premature newborns. While near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been examined for assessment of interventional closure in surgical ligation, its application in percutaneous transcatheter closure remains unexplored. This study aims to assess cerebral and renal hemodynamic changes using NIRS during percutaneous closure compared to surgical closure in preterm infants. A prospective observational study enrolled preterm infants born at 32 weeks of gestation or less and diagnosed with hsPDA between January 2020 and December 2022. These infants received either surgical or catheter-based closure of the PDA. Cerebral and renal oxygen saturation was monitored using the INVOS 5100 device from 12 h before the intervention until 24 h after. Linear mixed-effects models were used to analyze time-dependent variables. Twenty-two patients were enrolled, with catheter-based closure performed in 16 cases and conventional surgery in 6 cases. Following ductal closure, a significant increase in renal and cerebral oximetry was observed alongside a decrease in renal and cerebral tissue oxygen extraction. These changes were particularly pronounced in the renal territory. No differences were detected between catheterization and surgical closure. Conclusion: An improvement in cerebral and renal oximetry following hsPDA closure was observed. However, we did not identify differences in this pattern based on the type of interventional procedure for PDA, whether surgery or catheterization. What is Known: ⢠The presence of a significant ductus is common in premature patients. Studies have shown that it affects cerebral and renal hemodynamics negatively, leading to decreased oximetry values in these areas. It has been reported that closure of the ductus, either pharmacologically or surgically, results in improved oximetry values. What is New: ⢠This study assess the impact of percutaneous closure of ductus, revealing increased oximetry values in cerebral and renal territories without significant differences compared to surgical ligation. Notably, renal oximetry values showed a greater increase, underscoring the importance of multi-location monitoring.
