Cardiovascular Conditions and Treatments

Cardiovascular Conditions and Treatments is a research topic within Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and Imaging. Science Explorer counts 9.6k research works in it since 1950. 10.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants, with a particular emphasis on the use of indomethacin prophylaxis and ibuprofen treatment. It also explores the association between PDA and neonatal morbidity, the use of echocardiography for assessment, and the impact of ductal closure on outcomes such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Additionally, it examines the relationship between PDA and congenital heart disease, including cardiomyopathy.
