Preterm Labor Treatment

 

TRANSCRIPT

Nurse Goodwin

There are several methods of diagnosing and treating preterm labor. Some of these strategies include:

  • Ultrasound evaluation of the cervix
  • Medications designed to stop contractions
  • Increased bed rest, and
  • Treatment of specific bacterial infections

Your healthcare team can tell you more about each of these treatments, if necessary.
