“…Second, our results showed an insignificant difference between groups in Side effects like confusion and chest pain, but we did not monitor for dry mouth, constipation, urinary retention, reflux and flushing. However, by data analysis from five studies for the effect of HBB on mouth dryness in a previous metanalysis [27] the difference between HBB and controls was insignificant.…”

“…In a meta-analysis done by Zaynab and colleagues to assess the effectiveness of hyoscine n-butyl bromide in labor progress, analysis of 11 studies involving 1682 participants showed an insignificant difference in the APGAR score at 1 min between HBB and controls (mean difference =-0.04; 95% CI: [− 0.09, 0.01]). Also, the results of seven studies (involving 1453 neonates) showed an insignificant effect of HBB on APGAR score at 5 min after birth (mean difference = − 0.03; 95% CI: [− 0.08, 0.03]) [27].…”

Background Abrupt bradycardia and hemodynamic instability during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section are not uncommon and are considered as one of the primary causes of intraoperative nausea and vomiting (IONV). We hypothesized that prophylactic use of hyoscine butyl-bromide (HBB) could improve hemodynamics and reduce IONV in parturients undergoing cesarean section. Methods A randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial was carried out in a tertiary university hospital, patients scheduled for elective cesarean section were equally randomized to receive either IV HBB 20 mg in 1 ml (Hyoscine group) or the same volume of 0.9% saline (Control group), one minute after spinal anesthesia. The primary endpoint was the incidence of intraoperative bradycardia (HR < 50 beats min−1). Secondary endpoints included changes in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), the incidence of Intraoperative and Postoperative nausea or vomiting (IONV & PONV), the fetal heart rate and, Apgar score. Results Of the 160 subjects randomized, 80 received HBB and 80 received placebo. There was a significant reduction in the incidence of the primary endpoint of intraoperative bradycardia (HR < 50 beats min−1) in the Hyoscine group (0% vs 10%; OR = 0.05, 95% CI = [0.003, 0.93]; P = 0.004) compared with placebo. MAP showed an insignificant difference between groups over time. HBB significantly decreased incidences of IONV and PONV (p = 0.002 & 0.004) respectively. Conclusions In parturients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia, pretreatment with intravenous HBB was a safe measure for both the mother and the baby to reduce the risk of severe intraoperative bradycardia, but not hypotension. Furthermore, it was associated with less incidence of both IONV and PONV. Trial registration https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04069078

“…A Cochrane review including 17 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the use of spasmolytics and duration of labor found a statistically significant reduction in the mean duration of the first stage of labor (i.e., the dilation phase) of 74 min [ 25 ]. A systematic review including 20 RCTs and a meta-analysis including 9 RCTs found a reduction in the mean duration of labor of 58 min and 55 min, respectively, when nulliparous women were treated with hyoscine butylbromide [ 29 , 30 ]. To our knowledge, except from 1 study from Saudi Arabia [ 31 ], there are no studies from high-income countries exploring the effect of hyoscine butylbromide on labor duration.…”

Background Prolonged labor is a common condition associated with maternal and perinatal complications. The standard treatment with oxytocin for augmentation of labor increases the risk of adverse outcomes. Hyoscine butylbromide is a spasmolytic drug with few side effects shown to shorten labor when used in a general population of laboring women. However, research on its effect on preventing prolonged labor is lacking. We aimed to assess the effect of hyoscine butylbromide on the duration of labor in nulliparous women showing early signs of slow labor. Methods and findings In this double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial, we included 249 nulliparous women at term with 1 fetus in cephalic presentation and spontaneous start of labor, showing early signs of prolonged labor by crossing the alert line of the World Health Organization (WHO) partograph. The trial was conducted at Oslo University Hospital in Norway from May 2019 to December 2021. One hundred and twenty-five participants were randomized to receive 1 ml hyoscine butylbromide (Buscopan) (20 mg/ml), while 124 received 1 ml sodium chloride intravenously. Randomization was computer-generated, with allocation concealment by opaque sequentially numbered sealed envelopes. The primary outcome was duration of labor from administration of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) to vaginal delivery, which was analyzed by Weibull regression to estimate the cause-specific hazard ratio (HR) of vaginal delivery between the 2 treatment groups, with associated 95% confidence interval (CI). A wide range of secondary maternal and perinatal outcomes were also evaluated. Time-to-event outcomes were analyzed by Weibull regression, whereas continuous and dichotomous outcomes were analyzed by median regression and logistic regression, respectively. All main analyses were based on the modified intention-to-treat (ITT) set of eligible women with signed informed consent receiving either of the 2 treatments. The follow-up period lasted during the postpartum hospital stay. All personnel, participants, and researchers were blinded to the treatment allocation. Median (mean) labor duration from IMP administration to vaginal delivery was 401 (440.8) min in the hyoscine butylbromide group versus 432.5 (453.6) min in the placebo group. We found no statistically significant association between IMP and duration of labor from IMP administration to vaginal delivery: cause-specific HR of 1.00 (95% CI [0.77, 1.29]; p = 0.993). Among 255 randomized women having received 1 dose of IMP, 169 women (66.3%) reported a mild adverse event: 75.2% in the hyoscine butylbromide group and 57.1% in the placebo group (Pearson’s chi-square test: p = 0.002). More than half of eligible women were not included in the study because they did not wish to participate or were not included upon admission. The participants might have represented a selected group of women reducing the external validity of the study. Conclusions One intravenous dose of 20 mg hyoscine butylbromide was not found to be superior to placebo in preventing slow labor progress in a population of first-time mothers at risk of prolonged labor. Further research is warranted to answer whether increased and/or repeated doses of hyoscine butylbromide might have an effect on duration of labor.

“…However, not all natural childbirth will end according to the proper time. In labor whose time is outside normal limits due to prolonged labor, other factors that can affect the length of labor are presentation abnormalities, inadequate contractions, birth canal abnormalities, twin or generally pregnancies, and anemia (1,7).…”

Background: Labour and birth are physiological and normal events. The process is considered to be normal if it takes 37-42 weeks without any complications. Non-pharmacological methods to speed up the progress of labour include birthing ball exercises. The Birthing ball exercise is a technique to help the progress of labour that can be used during the first stage of labour. Until now, birthing balls are not widely known and not common, even though birthing balls are very effective in accelerating the birth process. The advantage of using the birthing ball is that it increases blood flow to the uterus, placenta and baby, and provides comfort for the knees and ankles. Purposes: The purpose of this study was to determine the average length of the first stage of labour in primigravida using a birthing ball and those not using a birthing ball and the effect of the birthing ball on the duration of the first stage of labour in primigravida. Method: This study uses a quasi-experimental method with a Randomized Two-Group design, Post-test only. This study was held at Utama Barokah Clinic, Bandung from June to July 2021. Result: The research sample was 30 respondents, primigravida during the first stage of labour with data analysis using the Mann Whitney test, and the p value <0.05 was obtained. Conclusion: There was a difference in the average length of the first stage of labour in primigravida using a birthing ball and those not using a birthing ball.
