Comparison between Betamethasone and Dexamethasone Effect on Biophysical Profile in Pregnant Women: Random Clinical Trial
Mohammed Fouad Hussein;
Abstract
B
oth betamethasone and dexamethasone induce a profound, albeit transient, suppression of fetal heart rate characteristics and biophysical activities in the preterm fetus. However, the effect of dexamethasone is more pronounced. Awareness of these phenomena might prevent unwarranted iatrogenic delivery of preterm fetuses. Also, Antenatal corticosteroid administration could increase cerebral perfusion but has no influence on umbilical and venous blood flow.
