Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Renal function during indomethacin treatment was studied in 12 premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus. Decreases in urinary flow rate, GFR, and CH2O by 56, 27, and 66%, respectively, occurred during Indo therapy. Urinary excretion rates of ions were also reduced: Na by 70%, Cl by 79%, K by 40%. These changes were accompanied by slight decreases in plasma sodium concentration and osmolality. Except for GFR and urinary Na and osmolality, all these functions returned to pretreatment values one to two weeks after stopping the drug.
