Uterine hyperstimulation by intravenous access in a mammary vein: a case report and literature review
Breastfeed Med.
2012 Jun.
Abstract
Breast stimulation can produce contractions in a contraction stress test and has been considered for the augmentation of labor and prevention of postpartum hemorrhage. We present a case of intravenous access of a mammary vein in an obstetric patient that led to uterine hyperstimulation. Potential dangers of mammary vein intravenous access are discussed.
