Methods of inducing labor during mid-pregnancy

Many women do not understand mid-trimester induced labor. Mid-trimester induced labor refers to the method of artificially terminating a woman's pregnancy between 14 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. We all know that the longer the pregnancy, the more and more serious the complications that may occur. So this method came into being. Now let's introduce the methods of inducing labor in mid-term pregnancy.

There are two main methods of inducing labor in mid-pregnancy. One is the induction method of water bag plus oxytocin; the other is drug induction, such as rivanol induction, trichosanthes induction, hypertonic saline exchange, terpenoid membrane induction, gansuigongchong, prostaglandin induction, diluted alcohol induction, etc. As for the various methods of inducing labor in mid-term pregnancy, according to the actual domestic conditions, combined with the consideration of simple methods, shorter abortion time, small amount of medication, good effect, mild side effects, few complications, wide source of drugs and economic factors, the commonly used method in my country is water bag plus oxytocin 5! Induction of labor and levanol are introduced as follows:

(1) Water bag induction of labor: It is suitable for those who wish to terminate the pregnancy between 16 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. However, it is not suitable for those with uterine scars, inflammation of reproductive organs, acute stage of heart, liver, and kidney diseases, and repeated vaginal bleeding during pregnancy.

(2) Induction of labor with Levanol: Pregnant women who use this method to induce labor must undergo outpatient examinations and be admitted to the hospital. A levonol allergy test is required before induction of labor. Use 5-10 ml of 1:5000 levanol, put it into an eye drop bottle, drop 2 drops into the eye, and observe the results after 20 minutes. You can also use 0.1 ml of 1:4000 levanol for intradermal testing. If there is limited conjunctival or nasal mucosal congestion, edema, nasal congestion, palpitations, migraine, rash, etc., it means that the person is allergic to levanol and this method of inducing labor should not be used; if the result is negative, it can be performed. In addition, pregnant women should clean their skin, shave their hair, and empty their bladder before inducing labor. After skin disinfection, 100 ml of sterile levanol solution is injected into the amniotic cavity through the lower abdomen to stimulate uterine contraction, turning irregular contractions into regular contractions, and slowly widening the cervix to draw the fetus out. This is a safe and reliable method of inducing labor with a high success rate. The disadvantage of this method is that a small number of pregnant women will have a fever during induced labor, which generally does not exceed 38°C, but can quickly return to normal after antibiotic treatment. Another disadvantage is the residual decidua, so that most pregnant women need to undergo uterine curettage after induced labor.

The above is a detailed understanding of the methods of mid-pregnancy induced labor, which is believed to be of some help to women who are pregnant. Mid-pregnancy induced labor must be performed in a medical care institution with a "mid-pregnancy induced labor practice license." Be sure to choose the correct and appropriate method to induce labor to reduce the risks of induced labor. At the same time, you should go to a regular hospital for treatment.
