==History and symptoms==
== Overview ==
[[Patent ductus arteriosus]] is usually an [[asymptomatic]] diagnosis, which may cause [[heart failure]] and [[dyspnea]]. Clinical manifestation differs due to the size of [[Patent ductus arteriosus|PDA]]. If the closure does not happen, it may progress to high right-sided [[hypertension]] which may cause irreversible [[vascular]] damage. 


Usually asymptomatic or may present with symptoms of [[heart failure]], lower extremity [[clubbing]], [[dyspnea]]. Depending on the size of the PDA, a cardiac [[murmur]] can be missed during the first physical exam of the newborn, because of the high pulmonary pressure that avoids the [[left-to-right shunt]] at that time. When the pulmonary pressure drops, the [[murmur]] is evident.

Clinical features of Eisenmenger syndrome like cyanosis and clubbing can be found. The PDA patients typically have differential cyanosis i.e. cyanosis is more pronounced in lower extremities compared to upper.This is so because the ductus originates distal to the left subclavian artery. The left subclavian artery mainly supplies the upper extremities which escapes the shunting of blood.

Overview

Patent ductus arteriosus is usually an asymptomatic diagnosis, which may cause heart failure and dyspnea. Clinical manifestation differs due to the size of PDA. If the closure does not happen, it may progress to high right-sided hypertension which may cause irreversible vascular damage.

History and Symptoms

Small PDA

Moderate PDA

Large PDA

  • Presentation of large PDA in adults.
  • It can cause left ventricular overload. However, if the condition goes uncorrected progressive rise in pulmonary artery pressure may occur that in turn can cause a reversal of shunt i.e. right to left-sided shunting.
  • The right to left shunt can cause cyanosis and in later stages may progress to Eisenmenger syndrome.
