Dear doctors in the house,
Can someone please help with a good hospital here in Nigeria where PDA issues can be properly handled. Born Preterm (twins)The baby is now 4 months. We are told she could just be fine or a procedure might be required before she reaches 1year to correct the PDA. We are with University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital,they are trying but you know govt thing. Some doctors said they can't really handle PDA procedures there or even in Nigeria,we are worried.We need a hospital where we can get this properly handled before it gets out of hand. Your kind advice will be appreciated. Thank you.

HBOT for prematurity:
Twins, prematurity, and low birth weight combination frequently comes with lots of problems which you have not even mentioned.
We have written about it before in this medium.
See what this family did to have peace.
If you need it, we have it. It is called hyperbaric oxygen therapy -hbot.
Read it here or do your search. Few questions: Weight at birth, apga score, Any birth asphyxia or breathing deficiency at birth? Are the babies on continuous assisted ventilation or intermittent oxygen supply?
Are they feeding normally or they are on nasogastric feeding tube?
Are they gaining weight or retarded growth?
These babies need hbot. Will not say much now.

Stop patronizing rubbish if you don't want your beautiful twin children to die in your hands.
On your next appointment,ask the Drs categorically what their plan of management is,if they can do it here or they refer your children or child,if it's only one that is affected,to a centre where it can be done.
The duct usually closes on it's own,but in some children it doesn't,hence the name,"Patent".
If it doesn't the remedy is surgical closure,done by a paediatric surgeon,even sometimes narrowed down to a specialist paediatric heart surgeon,with skill set in correcting such defects.
All the best and God's strength.

You are a dangerous fellow.
Do you even know what you are saying.
Do you have any idea what a PDA defect is?
Well the blame will lie on any parent foolish enough to even listen to the rubbish you are promoting as a remedy for PDA.

it does not take much to understand the whole principles of hbot. There is always a new way of dealing with life-threatening medical problems. If we are "dangerous and talking rubbish" what will happen to the ischemic-hypoxic-encephalopathy that may set in with or without surgery?
So you will teach us the meaning of PDA (patent ductus arteriosus)
and the dangers of waiting for 12 months for correction abi?

Happy to hear that your baby is fine.
Please how long did it take for your preemie to get his/her weight back to full term ?
Any complications/ long term effect?
