Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to examine if a higher dose of indomethacin will increase the rate of ductus arteriosus closure in extremely premature infants without increasing the side effects. The long term objective is to find the optimal dosing of indomethacin for permanent closure of the Ductus and prevent the morbidity related to PDA and the complications of surgical ligation.
