  • Title: [Influence of oxytocin and prostaglandin E2 on icterus neonatorum (author's transl)].
    Author: Liebenstein J, Socias M, Wiest W, Schenk S.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1981 Mar; 41(3):222-6. PubMed ID: 7215766.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this progressive study is to clarify whether the pain-in-labour drugs Oxytocin and Prostaglandin E2 do have an influence on postpartum serumbilirubin concentrations of the neonates. Two groups of neonates in which labour was induced with Oxytocin or Prostaglandin E2 were compared with a control group without pain-in-labour stimulants. The three groups were comparable in respect of obstetrical anamnesis and risk factors. The serumbilirubin concentration of the neonates was controlled at very frequent intervals during the first 72 hours. In the three groups, no difference could be found in the serumbilirubin values during the 72 hours' duration of the study.
