Terbutaline may alter maternal hemodynamics and fetal heart rate; hypothesis-generating for utero-placental perfusion effects.
Does intravenous terbutaline alter maternal hemodynamics and fetal heart activity in healthy pregnant women?
Intravenous terbutaline induces a hyperdynamic maternal cardiovascular state and increases fetal heart activity, highlighting the need to consider utero-placental perfusion effects.
Roth et al. (1990) studied this question.
