title: Treatment of Fetal Premature Ventricular Contractions by Administering Propranolol Hydrochloride Orally to the Mother.
abstract: > Frequent fetal premature ventricular contractions were diagnosed at 39 weeks of gestation. To avoid unnecessary cesarean section, the mother was administered propranolol hydrochloride orally. The tococardiography became feasible and permitted us to evaluate fetal well-being. The patient successfully delivered transvaginally a male infant at 40 weeks of gestation.
