80 participants in 2 patient groups

Vaginal misoprostol alone
Active Comparator group
Description:
Women in this group will receive 25mcg of vaginal misoprostol every 4 hours up to a maximum of 5 doses. Misoprostol will be stopped in case of a favorable cervix or if the patient is in active labor. In case of no progression after 5 doses of misoprostol, intravenous oxytocin will be perfused 4 hours after the last dose of misoprostol according to local protocols
Treatment:
Drug: Misoprostol
Vaginal misoprostol + Foley catheter
Experimental group
Description:
Women in this group will receive 25mcg of vaginal misoprostol every 4 hours up to a maximum of 5 doses. At the same time a 16French Foley catheter will be inserted through the internal os with visualization of the cervix by sterile speculum examination. The catheter balloon will be inflated with 30 ml of sterile normal saline solution and then the catheter will be taped with gentle traction to the inner thigh of the patient until spontaneous expulsion. If this does not occur, the catheter will be deflated and removed after 12 hours. Misoprostol will be stopped in case of a favorable cervix or if the patient is in active labor. In case of no progression after 5 doses of misoprostol, intravenous oxytocin will be perfused 4 hours after the last dose of misoprostol.
Treatment:
Device: Foley catheter
Drug: Misoprostol
