ÖZET
Preterm eylem gebeliğin 37. Haftasında önce başlayan doğum eylemini tanımlamaktadır. Doğumun gerçekleştiği haftaya göre erken ve geç preterm eylem olarak
sınıflandırılmaktadır. Preterm doğum fetal morbidite, mortaliteye sebep olan, antenatal dönemde hastaneye yatış gerektiren en sık durumdur. Preterm doğum etiyolojisinde
sırası ile spontan preterm doğum, preterm erken membran rüptürü, çoğul gebelikler, preeklampsi/eklampsi, antepartum kanama, fetal büyüme geriliği yer
almaktadır. Preterm doğum etiyolojisinde yer alan önemli durumlardan birisi olan servikal yetmezlik tanısında ağrısız servikal dilatasyon mevcut iken preterm eylemde
uterin kontraksiyonların varlığı dikkat çekicidir. Preterm eylemin önlenmesinde progesteron etkili bir ajan olarak görülmektedir. Hasta bazlı karar verilerek;
vaginal veya intramusküler olarak progesteron desteği uygulanabilir. Preterm eylem tedavisindeki en önemli amaç; fetusa en az 48 saat daha zaman kazandırarak prematuritenin
oluşturacağı riskleri azaltmaktır. Tedavide kullanılabilecek tokolitik ilaç seçenekleri; siklooksijenaz inhibitörleri, beta-agonistler, kalsiyum kanal blokerleri,
magnezyum sülfat, oksitosin reseptör antagonistleridir. Tedaviler bireyselleştirilmeli ilaçların etki ve yan etki değerlendirilmeleri dikkatle yapılmalıdır.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Preterm eylem; tokoliz; önleme ve kontrol; servikal uzunluk ölçümü
ABSTRACT
Preterm labor defines the labor that starts before the 37th week of pregnancy. It is classified as early and late preterm labor.. Preterm birth is the most common condition
that causes fetal morbidity and mortality and requires hospitalization in the antenatal period. In the etiology of preterm birth, there are spontaneous preterm birth,
preterm premature rupture of membranes, multiple pregnancies, preeclampsia/eclampsia, antepartum hemorrhage, fetal growth retardation, respectively. The presence
of uterine contractions is remarkable. Progesterone is seen as an effective agent in the prevention of preterm labor The most important goal in the treatment of preterm
labor; It is to reduce the risks of prematurity by giving the fetus at least 48 hours more time. Tocolytic drug can be used in treatment; cyclooxygenase inhibitors, betaagonists,
calcium channel blockers, magnesium sulfate, oxytocin receptor antagonists. Treatments should be individualized and the effects and side effects of drugs
should be evaluated carefully.
