title: [Comparative evaluation of efficiency and tolerance of two alternative methods for premature uterine contractions suppression using fenoterol and nitroglycerin].
abstract: In the Obstetrics and Gynaecological Department of the National Research Institute of Mother and Child between January 1998 and December 1998, sixty women with premature uterine contractions were treated. 30 women were treated using transdermal nitroglicerin (Nitroderm) and 30 using Fenoterol. There was no difference between age, parity and gestational age at the beginning of this study. The authors compared the efficiency, tolerance and safety of transdermal nitroglicerin and beta-mimetics used for premature uterine contraction suppression. The frequency and intensity of adverse effects were also evaluated.
