About
Induction of labor is one of the most common obstetrical medical procedures performed today. Iatrogenic stimulation of uterine contractions prior to the onset of spontaneous labor is undertaken for various maternal and fetal indications and spans 20% of deliveries today.
In many circumstances of women with an unfavorable cervix (Bishop score of 7 or less) sequential induction with more than one agent is necessary. To date, no trial has compared the optimal subsequent ripening method after the preliminary use of dinoprostone (prostaglandin E2). In this trial investigators aim to compare the obstetrical outcomes of subsequent induction in women admitted for induction of labor with Bishop score <7 or less 24 hours after the insertion of vaginal prostaglandin insert (Propess). Two methods of routine induction of labor will be compared: An additional Propess induction for another 24 hours vs. intravenous oxytocin infusion combined with intra-cervical balloon insertion.
