Summary of findings for IV terbutaline vs IV nitroglycerin

Umbilical artery pH < 7.0 · women with non‐reassuring FHR tracing during labour or induction of labour

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings for IV terbutaline changes umbilical artery pH < 7.0 compared with IV nitroglycerin (very low certainty).

Summary of findings for IV terbutaline vs IV nitroglycerin

Successful intrauterine fetal resuscitation · women with non‐reassuring FHR tracing during labour or induction of labour

Summary of findings for IV terbutaline showed no clear difference in successful intrauterine fetal resuscitation compared with IV nitroglycerin (low certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs IV magnesium sulphate

Low umbilical artery pH (< 7.2 or as defined by trial authors) · women for whom a decision had been made to deliver by caesarean section for suspected fetal distress based on FHR monitoring

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline changes umbilical artery pH < 7.2 compared with IV magnesium sulphate (very low certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs IV magnesium sulphate

Resolution of fetal distress on FHR tracing · women for whom a decision had been made to deliver by caesarean section for suspected fetal distress based on FHR monitoring

It is very uncertain whether summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline changes resolution of fetal distress on FHR tracing compared with IV magnesium sulphate (very low certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery

Perinatal death or severe morbidity · women in labour with signs of fetal distress and a fetal scalp pH < 7.25, for whom the decision had been made for emergency delivery

The review found no eligible studies for this question.

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery

Caesarean section · women in labour with signs of fetal distress and a fetal scalp pH < 7.25, for whom the decision had been made for emergency delivery

The review found no eligible studies for this question.

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery

Apgar score less than 7 at 5 minutes · women in labour with signs of fetal distress and a fetal scalp pH < 7.25, for whom the decision had been made for emergency delivery

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline showed no clear difference in 5‐minute Apgar score < 7 compared with no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery (low certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery

Abnormal FHR tracing · women in labour with signs of fetal distress and a fetal scalp pH < 7.25, for whom the decision had been made for emergency delivery

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline probably leads to lower abnormal FHR tracing compared with no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery (moderate certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline vs no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery

No improvement in FHR · women in labour with signs of fetal distress and a fetal scalp pH < 7.25, for whom the decision had been made for emergency delivery

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline probably leads to lower no improvement in FHR compared with no tocolytic agent, whilst awaiting emergency delivery (moderate certainty).

Summary of findings for subcutaneous terbutaline with continuation of oxytocic infusion vs cessation of oxytocic infusion without tocolytic agent

Perinatal death or severe morbidity · women who developed uterine hyperstimulation in labour with oxytocin augmentation, but without signs of fetal distress

The review found no eligible studies for this question.
