Official title
Foley Bulb With Oral Misoprostol Versus Oral Misoprostol for Induction of Labor: A Cluster Randomized Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Induction of labor is associated with increased cesarean delivery rates, particularly in women with an unfavorable cervix. Both pharmacologic and mechanical methods are utilized for cervical ripening and labor induction. Evidence on the safety and effectiveness of various mechanical and pharmacologic methods of cervical ripening and labor induction is abundant, and yet the majority of clinical trials evaluate time to delivery, rather than mode of delivery. This is a prospective, cluster-randomized clinical trial to compare a standard method of induction at our institution (oral misoprostol) with an alternative, commonly used combination method of oral misoprostol and transcervical foley bulb in women with term pregnancies requiring induction of labor.
