EFFICACY OF ATOSIBAN IN THE TREATMENT OF PRETERM LABOR AT CAN THO OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY HOSPITAL IN 2023-2025
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Preterm birth is one of the leading causes of neonatal mortality; therefore, controlling uterine contractions is crucial. Atosiban, an oxytocin receptor antagonist, effectively inhibits uterine contractions within the first 48 hours, improving outcomes. Objective: To determine the success rate and factors influencing the treatment outcomes of preterm labor using Atosiban at Can Tho Obstetrics and Gynecology hospital. Subjects and Methods: A prospective descriptive study was conducted on 46 pregnant women treated for preterm labor with Atosiban. Results: The rate of labor delay beyond 48 hours was 76.1%. Among them, 39.1% maintained pregnancy for 2–7 days, and 37% for more than 7 days. Treatment outcomes were significantly associated with the frequency and intensity of uterine contractions (p<0.05). Conclusion: Atosiban is an effective method for delaying preterm labor.
