  • Title: Intrapartum amnioinfusion in twin gestation. A preliminary report of three cases.
    Author: Strong TH, Howard MW, Wade BK, Miura CS, Elliott JP.
    Journal: J Reprod Med; 1993 May; 38(5):397-9. PubMed ID: 8320679.
    Abstract:
    Amnioinfusion is an intrapartum technique that is not usually attempted in twin gestations. This report describes infusion of normal saline into the amniotic sacs of three twin gestations with oligohydramnios. All the twins were safely delivered vaginally. No untoward effects were noted. Ultrasound is advised following amnioinfusion to assess the increase in the amniotic fluid volume.
