This paper reports results of clinical and experimental studies which sought to validate endonasal laser treatment for prevention of dysfunctional labor in late toxemia. Electrophysiologic and histochemical studies showed stimulating effects of the helium-neon laser treatment on function of large cell hypothalamic nuclei and uterine contractility. Clinical efficiency of this treatment was seen as a lower incidence of dysfunctional labor and cesarean section.
