Sudden, unforeseen fetal death in a woman being treated for premature labor. A case report
The Journal of Reproductive Medicine
|December 1, 1984
Intrapartum death of a normal fetus is rare and usually is preceded by an ominous fetal heart rate pattern. The sudden, unexpected intrapartum death of a monitored premature fetus occurred in a woman being treated for premature labor with betamethasone and terbutaline. The cause of the event has remained obscure.

Teratogenicity
The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...
Pneumothorax-I
A pneumothorax is a condition where air builds up in the space between the lung and the chest wall, causing the lung to collapse. This condition arises when air enters the space between the parietal and visceral pleura, disrupting the negative pressure essential for lung inflation. This can lead to a partial or complete collapse of the lung.
Pneumothorax can be even further classified as spontaneous, traumatic, and tension pneumothorax.
