The findings of this study showed that nifedipine and indomethacin used in the treatment of PTL had significant effects on UA-PI and UA-RI Doppler flows at 12, 24, and 24 h, MCA-RI Doppler flows at 12 h, and DV-PI and DV-RI Doppler flows at 12, 24, and 48 h. Further studies involving larger numbers of participants are now needed to support these results.
