Aortic stiffness index and its association with cardiovascular functions in children before and after transcatheter closure of PDA
BACKGROUND: Patent ductus arteriosus is generally associated with hyperdynamic status. Given the vascular shunt between the aorta and pulmonary artery, intrinsic aortic changes occur (aortic stiffness). In the present study, we attempted to assess the impact of PDA on aortic stiffness and its connec...
