Abstract
A retrospective study was carried out in 26 patients in premature labour complicated by antepartum haemorrhage. Patients treated with the beta-adrenergic agonists, salbutamol or ritodrine, continued the pregnancy longer, had smaller subsequent blood losses, and delivered infants in better condition than patients no so treated. There was little difference between the effectiveness of either beta-adrenergic agonist.Keywords
