Hi all,
Just doing some research on the effect of syntocinon on a newly birthed mum.
I have recently witnessed a severe post placental hypotension after
synto was given with a fast (but not too severe) bleed - about 700ml in
total.
Drop from 100/70 to 70/40 within 5 mins ...
any thoughts??
She came up again within 45 mins, but I thought this was pretty severe...
Anyone have some recent research??
Many thanks, Sue
HI Sue....how was the syntocinon administered...as an IV bolus??
Cheers Tina Pettigrew
