Abstract

In a group of 152 high-risk pregnancies, 266 oxytocin challenge tests were reviewed. There were 137 patients with persistently negative oxytocin challenge tests with only one false-negative test being recorded. Fifteen patients who displayed a positive test at some time in their antepartum course are discussed along with other aspects of the oxytocin challenge test.
