Terbutaline pump maintenance therapy for prevention of preterm delivery: a double-blind trial

Article Abstract:

Terbutaline pump therapy may not prolong the time to delivery in women at risk of delivering prematurely. Intravenous magnesium had suppressed preterm labor in fifty-two women. Subsequently, 24 women received terbutaline pump therapy and 28 women received placebo. Time to delivery, birth rates and infant characteristics were similar in both groups. This finding negated a terbutaline effect.
