  • Clinical value of ritodrine hydrochloride for threatened Premature Labor
    Journal of Hainan Medical University, 2012
    Co-Authors: Fu Qiu-yu
    Abstract:

    Objective: To explore the effects of ritodrine hydrochloride for inhibition of uterine contractions and prevention of threatened Premature Labor,and its side effects.Methods:During April and December 2011,ritodrine hydrochloride were used to treat patients that were suffering from threatened Premature Labor but can't tolerate magnesium sulfate or showed no response to magnesium sulfate.Treatment courses,uterine contraction inhibition,pregnancy outcomes,and adverse reactions were observed.Results: Ritodrine hydrochloride inhibited urine contraction in 28 of the 50 cases,and gestational age continued;neither severe complication occurred in neonates nor severe side effects observed.Conclusion: Ritodrine hydrochloride tocolytic is safe and effective treatment for threatened Premature Labor.

  • progesterone in women with arrested Premature Labor a report of a randomised clinical trial and updated meta analysis
    BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2017
    Co-Authors: Stephen Wood, Yacov Rabi, Selphee Tang, Rollin Brant, Susan Ross
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background Progesterone may be effective in prevention of Premature birth in some high risk populations. Women with arrested Premature Labor are at risk of recurrent Labor and maintenance therapy with standard tocolytics has not been successful. Methods Randomized double blinded clinical trial of daily treatment with 200 mg vaginal progesterone in women with arrested Premature Labor and an updated meta-analysis. Results The clinical trial was terminated early after 41 women were enrolled. Vaginal progesterone treatment did not change the median gestational age at delivery: 36+2 weeks versus 36+4 weeks, p = .865 nor increase the mean latency to delivery: 44.5 days versus 46.6 days, p = .841. In the updated meta-analysis, progesterone treatment did reduce delivery Conclusion Progesterone is not effective for preventing preterm birth following arrested preterm Labor.

  • Endocrine disruptors and spontaneous Premature Labor: a case control study.
    Environmental health : a global access science source, 2007
    Co-Authors: Stephen Wood, John J Jarrell, Cheryl Swaby, Sui Chan
    Abstract:

    Background Premature Labor is a poorly understood condition. Estrogen is thought to play a key role and therefore the Labor process may be affected by endocrine disruptors. We sought to determine whether or not an environmental toxicant, DDE, or dietary derived endocrine disruptors, daidzein and genistein, are associated with spontaneous preterm Labor.

  • Retrospective clinical study of tocolytic drugs used for the prevention of Premature Labor.
    Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2009
    Co-Authors: Yan Liang
    Abstract:

    Objective To analyze and discuss the clinical effectiveness of prevention of Premature Labor using oxytodn antagonist (atosiba), β-receptor agonist (ritodrine) and magnesium sulfate. Methods 76 cases of Premature Labor patients (14 were treated with atosiban, 36 with ritodrine and 26 cases with magnesium sulfate) were retrospectively analyzed for their effectiveness, complication and impact on pregnancy. Results Atosiban and ritodrine were more effective than magnesium sulfate in the prevention of Premature Labor. The rate of complication was in the order of magnesium sulfate group ritodrine group atosiban group. However, the outcome of pregnancy in these three groups was similar. Conclusion Although atosiban is expensive, it is relatively effectiveness and safe for the Premature Labor patients. The effectiveness of ritodrine is similar to atosiban and it can be used as first-line drug for the Premature Labor patients.
