Tocolytics 임신부의 조기진통시 치료제로 많이 사용되는 약제지만 드물게는 폐부종을 일으켜 치명적일 수 있다. Tocolytics가 폐부종을 일으키는 기전은 용적증가, 교질삼투압의 감소, 심근 손상, 모세혈관 내막의 손상등에 의해 발생한다고 설명되고 있으나 아직 불확실한 상태이며 폐부종 발생의 양대 기전인 정수압적 폐부종과 투과성 폐부종의 양상이 모두 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 임산부가 다산부이거나 다태아 임신인 경우, 임신중 수액공급을 많이 받은 경우, 심장 질환이 동반된 경우, 감염이 동반된 경우, 동시에 steroid나 MgSO4로 치료 받은 경우등이 tocolytics 사용시 폐부종이 쉽게 발생될 수 있는 선행요인으로 작용함이 알려져왔다. 저자들은 조기진통이 있어 tocolytics인 ritodrine 치료후 정상분만하였으나 분만후 급속히 진행하는 폐부종이 발생한 30세 여자 환자를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바 이다.

Tocolytics are agents widely used in the treatment of premature labor to inhibit uterine contractions. Ritodrine is most commonly used tocolytic agent and acts by increasing intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which decreases the activity of myosin light-chain kinase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the signal network leading to contraction. Physiologic effects associated with the use of ritodrine are due to their effect on bera-l as well as beta-2 receptors. Some of maternal complications of therapy are rachycardia, hyperglycemia, hypokalemia, lactic acidosis, myocardial ischemia, and pulmonary edema. Tocolytics induced pulmonary edema is a serious complication that can lead to marternal death, although infrequent, The incidence varies from 0.5% to 5% of those receiving these agents. Predisposing factors include the concommitant use of corticosteroid, twin gestation, fluid overload (particularly with saline), and anemia. Several mechanisms have been postulated, but the pathogenesis is uncertain. It is suggested that both types of mechanism, hydrostatic and permeability induced, might be involved. The association of tocolytic therapy with pulmonary edema appears to be unique to the pregnant state, because this complication has never been reported in asthmatic patients exposed to high dosages. We report a case of tocolytic induced pulmonary edema developed in 24 hours after delivery.
