Title: Use of nipple stimulation to obtain contraction stress test. Author: Lenke RR, Nemes JM. Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1984 Mar; 63(3):345-8. PubMed ID: 6700857. Abstract: A total of 1312 nonstress tests were performed in the 14-month period between May 1, 1981, and June 30, 1982. There were 323 tests in 194 patients that were nonreactive and subsequently required a contraction stress test using nipple stimulation. The authors found that the results obtained using nipple stimulation were as predictable as contraction stress tests using oxytocin infusion.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
