For many years medical intervention in the process of childbirth was thought to be unnecessary. However, during the last 2 decades, research in intrapartum care has been directed to formulating guidelines on a scientific basis for intervention in spontaneous labour. The direct causes of mortality during pregnancy and delivery are the same around the world and account for nearly 80% of all deaths during pregnancy. AstraZeneca’s focus has been on ensuring safe motherhood to eliminate the causes of mortality during pregnancy and delivery, resulting in specific products to combat haemmorrhage, sepsis, eclampsion and other complications during pregnancy. They are ‘Prostodin’ injections, ‘Primiprost’ tablets, ‘Cerviprime’ gel and ‘Durovit’ tablets & ‘Zoladex’.
