Superior Mesenteric Artery Blood Flow Velocities following Medical Treatment of a Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Abstract

We examined superior mesenteric artery blood flow velocity in response to feeding in infants randomized to trophic feeds (n = 16) or nil per os (n = 18) during previous treatment for patent ductus arteriosus. Blood flow velocity increased earlier in the fed infants, but was similar in the 2 groups at 30 minutes after feeding.
