[The effect of partusisten on the rate of blood flow in the fetal aorta].

It is established that the mean velocity of blood flow (Vmean) of the fetal aorta in pregnant women with pre-term deliveries during Doppler examination is 40.70-3.26 cm/s, but in women with normal pregnancy (a control group) is 32.46-2.13 cm/s. The difference is statistically significant (p less than 0.001). It is indicated that the tocolytic Partusisten passes through the placental barrier, penetrates in the fetal circulation and accelerates the velocity of the blood flow. This shows that it improves utero-placental circulation and fetal oxygenation and with this the general state of the fetus as well. It is pointed out that the results from this study support the rightness for usage of Partusisten in treatment of chronic and acute placental insufficiency for improvement of fetal hemodynamics as well as the general state of the fetus.
