The investigators aimed to compare efficacy and safety of Propess versus Cooks double-balloon catheter for cervical ripening with an unfavorable cervix in term pregnancy.
Full description
Previous studies focused on use of PGE2 instead of Propess, which is a preparation of PGE2 packaged in a hydrogel polymer matrix and release 10mg dinoprostone at 0.3mg per hour for 24 hours. Compared with PGE2, Propess can achieve a shorter induction-to-birth interval, a higher rate of vaginal delivery within 24 hours, and a smaller number of vaginal examinations during delivery. However local studies comparing the efficacy and satisfaction of cervical priming between Cook double-balloon catheter and Propess were lacking. The investigators aimed to compare efficacy and safety of Propess versus Cooks double-balloon catheter for cervical ripening with an unfavorable cervix in term pregnancy.
