[Influence of pindolol on maternal cardiovascular parameters and contractility of the puerperal uterus].
In the present study the influence of beta-receptor blockers on uterine activity was examined. In the postpartum period of 16 enrollees blood pressure, heart frequency, contraction frequency, basal tone, contraction intensity as well as the Montevideo Units were recorded at intervals of 10 minutes during and after infusion of 0.8 resp. 1.6 mg pindolol. Pindolol with its inherent intrinsic sympathomimetic activity led to the well known decrease of blood pressure but did not increase uterine activity.
