ABSTRACT
Background
Magnesiummaintenancetherapyisoneofthetypesoftocolytictherapyusedafteranepisodeofthreatenedpretermlabour(andusually
an initial dose of tocolytic therapy) in an attempt to prevent the onset of further preterm contractions.
Objectives
To assess the effects of magnesium maintenance therapy on preventing preterm birth after threatened preterm labour.
Search strategy
WesearchedtheCochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group trials register (August 2002).
Selection criteria
Randomised controlled trials of magnesium therapy given to women after threatened preterm labour.
Data collection and analysis
Trial quality assessment and data extraction were done independently by two reviewers.
Main results
Three trials, which recruited 303 women, were included. Two trials were of poor quality and none included any long-term follow up
of infants. No differences in the incidence of preterm birth or perinatal mortality were seen when magnesium maintenance therapy
was compared with placebo or no treatment; or alternative therapies (ritodrine or terbutaline). The relative risk (RR) for preterm birth
(less than 37 weeks) for magnesium compared with placebo or no treatment was 0.85, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.47 to 1.51;
and 0.98, 95% CI 0.56 to 1.72 for magnesium compared with alternative therapies. The RR for perinatal mortality for magnesium
compared with placebo or no treatment, and also compared with alternative treatments, was 5.00, 95% CI 0.25 to 99.16. Women
taking magnesium preparations were less likely to report palpitations or tachycardia than women receiving alternative therapies (RR
0.22, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.44) but were much more likely to experience diarrhoea (RR 10.67, 95% CI 3.35 to 33.99).
Authors’ conclusions
Thereis not enough evidence to show any difference between magnesium maintenance therapy and either placebo or no treatment, or
alternative therapies (ritodrine or terbutaline) in preventing preterm birth after an episode of threatened preterm labour.
PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY
Magnesium, given to women after threatening to give birth too early, does not reduce preterm birth or improve the outcome for the
infant
Babies born prematurely may not survive, or may have later problems if they do survive. After other drugs have been used to try to
stop early labour, magnesium is used to prevent further early contractions. This review did not show that magnesium used in this way
helpedprevent preterm birth, but this finding is based on very few studies, and none of them looked at the infants’ later development.
