Transitioning From Intravenous to Subcutaneous Prostacyclin Therapy in Neonates With Severe Pulmonary Hypertension.

This article aims to present our neonatal intensive care unit experience transitioning from intravenous epoprostenol to IV and subcutaneous treprostinil in patients with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate. This was a retrospective chart review at an academic teaching hospital. Neonates with a diagnosis of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the neonate (PPHN) who were started on IV prostacyclin therapy while admitted to the NICU between August 2017 and October 2019 were included.
