ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05719467
What this study is testing
What is Buscopan 20 MG/ML Injectable Solution?
Buscopan 20 MG/ML Injectable Solution is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for labor complication.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Over the past years, the rates of labor induction have increased steadily, and at present more than one in four births occurs after induced labor in Norway. There is evidence that several groups of women benefit from labor induction, including those with preeclampsia (1), postdate pregnancy, diabetes, a large-for-gestational-age fetus, gestational diabetes, prelabor rupture of membranes at term, preterm prelabor rupture of membranes, twin pregnancy and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
