简要总结
To detect the effect of sildenafil citrate on Doppler parameters in fetuses suffering from growth restriction to support its use later as prolonged therapy in those pregnancies at higher risk for such complication.
详细描述
Participants were randomized in 1:1 ratio into one of the following drug regime:
Group (I): "sildenafil citrate group" This group consisted of 22 women who received single oral dose of 50 mg sildenafil citrate.
Group (II): "placebo group" This group consisted of 22 women who received single oral dose of placebo. All participants were evaluated by ultrasound once they admitted and again after 2-hours following administration of either of the treatment tablets. One sonographer was allocated to evaluate all mothers included in the study.
