[Telephonic surveillance of pregnant women at risk of premature labor after hospitalization].
Manual evaluation of uterine contractility through the abdominal wall performed twice a day for 1 hour and reported by telephone every other day keeps pregnant women at risk of premature labour in a state of continual attention. When the women are disciplined, the recommendations, prescriptions and encouragements they receive in return result in a statistically significant reduction in the number of premature deliveries. More generally, this new and relatively inexpensive method leads to substantial savings. Such were the results obtained by comparing the courses of 2 series of pregnancies after hospitalization for the indispensable intravenous tocolysis.
