Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
BACKGROUND: Prolonged labour is still a common problem in our environment and its sequelae remain an important cause of maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. Obstetricians are still exploring ways of shortening the duration of labour so that the incidence of prolonged labour is reduced. Hyoscine -N-Butylbromide, an antimuscarinic agent has been used by some obstetricians to shorten the duration of first stage of labour, but controversies still exist regarding its effectiveness.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of Hyoscine-N- Butylbromide on the duration of the first stage of labour in nulliparous women.
