Southern Medical Journal, 09/11/09
Briery CM et al. – Amongst this group of twin gestations weekly 17HP injections did not reduce the incidence of preterm birth or the complications associated with prematurity.
- Twin pregnancies treated with weekly 17–alphahydroxyprogesterone (17P) injections do not have increased gestational age at delivery nor a reduction in preterm births compared to other women with twin pregnancies who received placebo injections.
- Weekly treatment with 17P did not reduce neonatal complications associated with prematurity including death, nor did it decrease neonatal intensive care unit stay.
- Twin gestations do not benefit from 17P injections in terms of a reduction of the incidence of preterm birth or neonatal complications.
