  • Title: Maternal and neonatal hyponatraemia: a comparison of Hartmanns solution with 5% dextrose for the delivery of oxytocin in labour.

    Journal: Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol; 1996 Sep; 68(1-2):47-8. PubMed ID: 8886680.
    Abstract:
    We performed a randomised controlled trial to compare the effect on neonatal and maternal serum sodium of using oxytocin in Hartmanns solution compared to the standard 5% Dextrose regimen for induction or augmentation in labour. We found significantly decreased maternal and neonatal serum sodium concentrations in the 5% Dextrose group compared to the Hartmanns group.
