“…Due to varying oxytocin administration regimes to induce and augment labour, and variation in uterotonic agents employed for third stage management it is difficult to confirm or refute this. However when the effectiveness of pulsatile versus continuous, and high dose or low dose, oxytocin was investigated no difference in PPH rates was noted (Tribe et al, 2012;Mori et al, 2011).…”

For women making slow progress in spontaneous labour, treatment with oxytocin as compared with no treatment or delayed oxytocin treatment did not result in any discernable difference in the number of caesarean sections performed. In addition there were no detectable adverse effects for mother or baby. The use of oxytocin was associated with a reduction in the time to delivery of approximately two hours which might be important to some women. However, if the primary goal of this treatment is to reduce caesarean section rates, then doctors and midwives may have to look for alternative options.
