This study evaluates the need of oxytocin therapy in active phase of labor. there will be two groups treating with oxytocin in latent phase.One group will be treated with low dose oxytocin therapy and the other group will be treated with high dose oxytocin therapy. oxytocin treatment will be ceased at the beginning of the active phase of labor. the need of oxytocin treatment in active phase of labor will be compared between two groups.
Oxytocin treatment in active phase of labour is used with respect to clinicians preference and best approach has not been described. We want to investigate the effect of oxytocin treatment by using different regims in latent phase of labor when oxytocin treatment is ceased in active phase of labour. In our trial we discontinued oxytocin in active phase of labour and investigate which group needs oxytocin therapy due to inadequate uterine contractions and arrest of labor.
