At patients threatened with premature childbirth the influence of glicocorticoids on short and tong-term fetal heart rate variability and the occurrence of respiratory arrhythmia was evaluated. It has been ascertained statistical significant lowering of the incidence of fetal respiratory arrhythmia and short-term variability. Described changes had a temporary character and surrendered of normalization in the course 72 of hours after last use of glicocorticoids. The influence of glicocorticoids on select biochemical and biophysical parameters of state pregnant women was also studied. One specified occurrence of incidental symptoms in road drove of therapy. Pregnant women in road of treatment glicocorticoids have also observed a temporary weakness of feeling of fetal movements.
