Indomethacin Tocolysis and Neurodevelopmental Outcome
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2011To compare the neurodevelopmental outcomes, at 30-42 months adjusted age, between infants exposed to antenatal indomethacin and those unexposed to antenatal indomethacin.This was a retrospective cohort study. The study cohort consisted of all nonanomalous infants with birth weight ≤ 1250 g and/or gestational age ≤ 28 wks born between 2000 and 2003, who

Preterm birth occurs in 12% of all births in the United States. Preterm labor precedes approximately half of these births. Tocolysis is used in the short term to prolong pregnancy long enough to administer corticosteroids and/or facilitate transfer to a tertiary care center. A number of agents have been used for this therapy, which will be discussed in

There is persisting controversy about tocolytic treatment for preterm labour. This review addresses this controversy by appraising the recent clinical literature.Surveys of obstetricians indicate a high usage of tocolysis for preterm labour, but evidence that this treatment confers overall benefit is still lacking.

Effectiveness of tocolytic strategies are difficult to prove and should called in question. Tocolysis by betaadrenergic agents inhibit a symptom without eliminating causing pathologies. Initial steps in etiology as well as therapy should be based on the entire organism including the psyche with a special focus on uterus, cervix and feto-placental unit.

External cephalic version without tocolysis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1988The increased rate of cesarean section in the United States is in part the result of more liberal use of the operation because of breech presentation. In an attempt to reduce the incidence of breech presentation in labor in a group of private patients, 66 patients underwent 90 attempted external cephalic versions in my office without tocolysis.
