Résumé (français)  :

Abstract (English)  :

Published reports imply that intrapartum ambulation may improve labor. This suggests the possible efficacy of ambulation in labors requiring augmentation, provided that adequate monitoring surveillance is maintained. Fourteen patients who failed to progress in active-phase labor, and who required augmentation for "inadequate" contractions were randomized into ambulation (eight) and oxytocin (six) groups. Internal fetal monitoring was used in all patients for 30 minute baseline and 2 hour study periods, with two-channel telemetry used in ambulating patients. Oxytocin was administered by infusion pump. Study parameters included changes in cervical dilation and station, contraction frequency, intensity and baseline tonus, and uterine activity. Labor progress was slightly but not significantly better in the ambulatory group. A mean increase in uterine activity units (UAU) in the ambulatory group was immediate to ranges not reached in the oxytocin group for 2 hours. Increase in Montevideo units was slightly greater in the ambulatory group during the first hour, but was exceeded by the oxytocin group during the second hour. These initial observations seem to indicate that, in terms of labor progress and initial effects on uterine activity, ambulation is as effective as oxytocin for the enhancement of labor and warrants further investigation.

Argument (français) :

Les premières observations montrent que la déambulation est moins effective que l’administration d’ocytocines pour faire progresser le travail qui demande une « augmentation ».
