Cardiac effects of drugs used for induction of labour and prevention and treatment of postpartum haemorrhage

Pregnancy presents significant stresses to a woman's body from the physiological changes to the cardiovascular system, fluid shifts at the time of delivery and the risk of major haemorrhage in the peri-partum period. Medications used routinely in daily obstetric practice may have potent vasoact...
