Institutional Trend in Device Selection for Transcatheter PDA Closure in Premature Infants.

We report our experience with transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure in premature infants and compare patients grouped by the device used for closure: the Microvascular Plug, "MVP" (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN); Micro Plug Set, "Micro Plug" (KA Medical, Minneapolis, MN); and Amplatzer Piccolo Occluder, "Piccolo" (Abbot, Santa Clara, CA). We also report trends in device selection over time. Studies examining outcomes according to device selection for PDA closure in premature infants are lacking.
