[Influence of high doses of ritodrine on basal cardiotocographic tracing during pregnancy]

The authors examine whether high doses of ritodrine may alter the antepartum 'non-stressed FHR monitoring'. In particular, they studied modifications of the 'reactivity' of the tracing. The authors conclude that ritodrine does not significantly affect FHR monitoring, and does not interfere with the antepartum assessment of fetal well being.
