If you are willing to allow spontaneous contractions, then what is wrong with oxytocin induced contractions ? A contraction is a contraction. The only diference is that you are doing something to bring about the contraction with the oxytocin. If properly administered and watched, there should be no more problem with pitocin induced contractions. With this patient, if I were to allow her to labor or to be augmented, I would be there with my hand on her abdomen and probably watching the Intrauterine pressure monitor as well.. -- @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ R.Daniel Braun,MD "All men are created unequal" Clinical Professor Indiana U.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
