Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
PDA is an uncommon clinical finding in adult patients.The incidence of PDA is 0.2 to 0.4 % in term infants. However depending on estimated gestational age the incidence in preterm neonates varies from 20 to 60% on the third day of life .PDA accounts for 6 to 11% of all the congenital heart diseases.[1,2,3] Although most cases of PDA seem to occur sporadically,multifactorial inheritance is believed to underlie many cases.These people are thought to possess a genetic predisposition acted on by an environmental trigger that occurs at an unknown but vulnerable time during pregnanc. [4] PDA is seen twice more often in females than in male.[5]
