Labour management. Our experience.

We report a retrospective analysis of 1202 deliveries assisted by the same medical team, evaluating the clinical management of labour and the resulting type of delivery. Examination of the data revealed a gradual reduction in the number of deliveries treated pharmacologically accompanied by a reduction in the incidence of operative deliveries from 16% to 6%. Statistical analysis of the data using X2 test demonstrated a clear correlation between the administration of oxytocin and the incidence of operative deliveries (p less than or equal to 0.001). We believe that the indiscriminate use of oxytocin in labour should be avoided and that the pharmacological and operative management of labour requires precise clinical indications.

They conclude that it must be considered as of congenital origin and generally treated with conservative therapy, limiting the use of demolitive surgical therapy solely to cases of deep and diffused alteration of the kidney.
