More Information
Per vaginal examination is risky in placenta praevia due to potential bleeding. Tocolytics are used to stop labor, not produce contractions. Atonic uterus is a common cause of postpartum hemorrhage. Ectopic pregnancy, not hydatidiform mole, refers to implantation outside the uterine cavity.
Tips
Confusing the purposes of tocolytics and oxytocics is common; remember tocolytics inhibit contractions.
