 Women who require augmentation of labor with intravenous oxytocin because of inadequate labor progression have been shown to be at increased risk of PPH. Typically, for augmentation of labor, oxytocin is used as a continuous infusion, with no consensus on the initial dose, its increments or maximal limit. High concentration continuous oxytocin infusions are not without theirs risks, which include hyperstimulation, fetal distress, as well as uterine rupture.
