RESUMEN
Se hace un esbozo del manejo del parto pretérmino, basado en las evidencias, haciendo énfasis en la importancia de un buen diagnóstico clínico, ecográfico y de laboratorio. A pesar que la terapia tocolítica para disminuir la actividad contráctil y las modificaciones del cuello uterino no parece disminuir la tasa de parto pretérmino, permitiría prolongar la gestación de manera de administrar glicocorticoides y transportar in útero al feto a una unidad de atención especializada. Si se va a emplear un agente tocolítico, los agonistas beta ya no son de elección, sino el atosiban o el nifedipino, con menos efectos maternos adversos. Una sola dosis de glicocorticoides entre las 24 y 34 semanas de gestación reduce el riesgo de muerte, síndrome de distrés respiratorio y hemorragia intraventricular en el bebe pretérmino. El parto pretérmino es un problema social de mayor importancia y, como tal, se debe poner más énfasis en su prevención primaria y el tratamiento de la inmadurez.
ABSTRACT
We do a brief account on evidence-based preterm birth treatment, emphasizing the importance of appropriate clinical, ultrasound and laboratory diagnosis. Tocolysis may decrease uterine activity and uterine cervix modifications but does not lower preterm birth rates; it may prolong gestation though to allow corticoids administration and in utero fetus transportation to a specialized unit. If we have to use a tocolyticagent, beta agonists are no longer first line drugs, and atosiban and nifedipine have less adverse maternal effects. A single dose of corticoids between 24 and 34 weeks of gestation reduces preterm death, respiratory distress syndrome and intraventricular hemorrhage risks. Preterm birth is a social problem of major importance and more emphasis should be placed on primary prevention and treatment of immaturity.
