The epidemiology of threatened preterm labor: A prospective cohort study

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2005
The purpose of this study was to describe the occurrence, timing, and outcomes of hospital-based diagnoses of preterm labor.Administrative records identified hospital admissions for preterm labor among 2534 women in an ongoing cohort study. Factors that were considered risks for prematurity were examined by logistic regression for an association with ...

Use of tocolytics for the treatment of threatened preterm labor

Pharmaceutical Chemistry Journal, 1993
1. It has been shown experimentally and clinically that salbupart possesses a marked inhibitory action on uterine contractile activity. In a clinical study the effectiveness of salbupart therapy of threatened preterm labor was 75% which is close to the effectiveness of partusisten (80%). 2. Salbupart is not embryotoxic or teratogenic.

Population differences and the effect of vaginal progesterone on preterm birth in women with threatened preterm labor

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2015
Threatened preterm labor (tPTL) is a complication of pregnancy. Identification of women and clinical definition differs between countries. This study investigated differences in tPTL and effectiveness of vaginal progesterone to prevent preterm birth (PTB) between two countries.Secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) from Argentina and

Terbutaline pump maintenance therapy after threatened preterm labor for preventing preterm birth

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2002
Women with preterm labor that is arrested with tocolytic therapy are at increased risk of recurrent preterm labor. Terbutaline pump maintenance therapy has been given to such women to decrease the risk of recurrent preterm labor, preterm birth, and its consequences.To determine the effectiveness and safety of terbutaline pump maintenance therapy after ...

[Treatment of threatened preterm labor with partusisten and salbupart].

Vestnik Akademii meditsinskikh nauk SSSR, 1990
Comparative trials of two tocolytic preparations, salbupart (Polfa) and partusisten, showed their high efficacy (75 and 80 per cent, respectively). The success of management depends on the outcome of the preceding pregnancies, the course of current pregnancy in the 1st and 2nd trimesters, the cervical status, and extent of therapy.
