Fibromyomas and uterine contractions
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1997Background. Women with uterine fibromyomas may suffer from dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia or infertility, which all may be due to an effect of the fibroids on uterine activity. The effect of myomectomy on uterine contractility is unknown.Methods. In women undergoing myomectomy because of dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia or infertility, intrauterine pressure was ...

Fractal analysis of the uterine contractions.
Rivista di biologia, 2004The fractal dimension D may be calculated in many ways, since its strict definition, the Hausdorff definition is too complicated for practical estimation. In this paper we perform a comparative study often methods of fractal analysis of time series. In Benoit, a commercial program for fractal analysis, five methods of computing fractal dimension of ...

The hemodynamics of a uterine contraction
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1958Abstract 1. 1. An attempt has been made to estimate by indirect methods the amount of blood extruded from the uterus into the maternal venous reservoir during the early portion of the contraction cycle. From this study it would appear that this volume of blood may be in the range of 250 to 300 c.c. 2. 2.

Uterine Contraction Assessment
Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2005Few approaches to preterm birth prevention have been as thoroughly studied yet as enigmatic as uterine contraction assessment. Despite multiple randomized clinical trials (level 1 evidence), the effectiveness of home uterine contraction assessment as an adjunct to the clinical management of women at risk for preterm birth remains controversial.

Myocytes, Myometrium, and Uterine Contractions
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006Abstract: The pregnant uterus is unique because of the dramatic functional changes that occur in the peripartum period. To promote the concept that we have a relatively poor understanding of the physiology of parturition, we will posit 10 facts that are so obvious and so clearly accepted as facts that they probably are not even facts at all.

Energetics of Uterine Muscle Contraction
Nature, 1950LUNDSGAARD1 has shown that the energy liberated by striated muscle, poisoned by monoiodoacetic acid under anaerobic conditions, is proportional to the breakdown of creatine phosphate. He has also shown that under these conditions adenosinetriphosphate2 also disappeared on stimulation.

Uterine Contractions Preceding Labor
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2007To evaluate whether 12 contractions in 1 hour is a meaningful signal that spontaneous labor has begun or is imminent.This prospective observational cohort study includes all women reporting contractions who presented to a labor and delivery triage unit between August 1 and October 31, 2006, who met the following criteria: 1) 36 0/7 to 41 6/7 weeks of ...

The Effect of Aneurin on Uterine Contractions
Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 19531. The effect of aneurin on inadequate pains in 47 cases has been studied. An injection of 100 mg was administered and the results were recorded tocographically.2. In cases of inertia no clear effect could be observed.3. In cases of exhaustion the strength of uterine contractions was increased as a rule, sometimes to such an extent that there was a ...

Epidural anesthesia and uterine contractions
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2004It has been our anecdotal experience that midwives and doctors sometimes perceive uterine contractions to diminish in strength and frequency following the administration of epidural anesthesia. This is probably an incorrect perception, as there is no physiological reason for this phenomenon [1].
