The answer is left to right shunt

Ductus arteriosus is a vessel that connect the pulmonary artery with the aorta. Normally, ductus arteriosus will be closed to prevent backflow. Patent ductus arteriosus happens when it doesn't closed.

Since aorta pressure is higher than pulmonary, left to right shunt will be happens. The blood that flow to the lungs will be increased while blood flow to the systemic decreased.

julsineya [31]

Holding your breath while ascending can lead to all of the above options.

Surfacing excessively fast or holding the breathing while swimming to the surface can make the air in the lungs expand which is known as pneumonic barotrauma. This might break lung tissue, which can prompt gas bubbles to be delivered into the blood vessel dissemination (arterial gas embolism).

The air in the lungs becomes risky when an individual ascends. On the off chance that somebody holds their breath while rising to the surface, the lungs and the air inside them extend as the water pressure decreases. Since that air has no place to escape, it continues to expand against the walls of the lungs, no matter what the organ's capacity.
