title: [Cortisol in amniotic fluid during PGE2-induced labor].
abstract: Concentrations of cortisol in amniotic fluid had been estimated during induced deliveries by prostaglandin E2 (group PG) and induced ones by oxytocin (control group OX). Cortisol concentration in amniotic fluid was much higher in group PG. The mode of action of prostaglandin on fetal lung had been analyzed. Our results prefer prostaglandin as drug of choice for induction of labour.
