The causes of premature labor are poorly understood (as are the factors that set off labor in full-term mothers). However, it is known that particularly in the United States, women are far more likely to enter premature labor than in most other industrialized countries and even some less developed countries. Premature labor is a particular problem in mothers who have not had regular pre-natal care.

abstract
  • The causes of premature labor are poorly understood (as are the factors that set off labor in full-term mothers). However, it is known that particularly in the United States, women are far more likely to enter premature labor than in most other industrialized countries and even some less developed countries. Premature labor is a particular problem in mothers who have not had regular pre-natal care. In many cases, premature labor will continue to birth, but in extreme situations labor can be stopped for up to 72 hours by the administration of terbutaline. In such cases, the mother will be given steroids to encourage development of the fetal lungs.
