PDA is a heart problem that is usually noted in the first few weeks or months after birth. It is characterized by a connection between the aorta and the pulmonary artery which allows oxygen-rich (red) blood that should go to the body to recirculate through the lungs.
All babies are born with this connection between the aorta and the pulmonary artery. While your baby was developing in the uterus, it was not necessary for blood to circulate through the lungs because oxygen was provided through the placenta. During pregnancy, a connection was necessary to allow oxygen-rich (red) blood to bypass your baby's lungs and proceed into the body. This normal connection that all babies have is called a ductus arteriosus.
Recognising these signs early can help you seek timely treatment and achieve the best possible outcomes.
Persistent chest pain, tightness or discomfort that may radiate to the left arm, jaw, or back — a hallmark sign of cardiac disease.
Difficulty breathing during ordinary activities or at rest, often worsening when lying down (orthopnoea).
Awareness of a fast, fluttering or pounding heart. Arrhythmias can present as intermittent or sustained irregular pulse.
Unusual tiredness during normal activity, caused by the heart's reduced ability to pump adequate blood to muscles.
Oedema caused by fluid retention when the heart cannot maintain normal circulation. Commonly noticed in the ankles, feet, and lower legs.
Syncope or near-syncope due to reduced cardiac output or arrhythmia, requiring urgent cardiac evaluation.
