Official title
A Cluster Randomized Trial of Labor Induction With Oral Versus Vaginal Misoprostol
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will compare vaginal and oral misoprostol, to determine whether a vaginal misoprostol regimen achieves a higher vaginal delivery rate in a real-world, high-volume setting, and whether this regimen reduces time and oxytocin need on a high-volume Labor and Delivery unit at Parkland Hospital. Our primary hypothesis is that among women with singleton, term pregnancies, cervical dilation 2cm or less, and indicated labor induction, the rate of vaginal delivery is significantly increased when a standardized vaginal misoprostol regimen is used, compared with a standardized oral misoprostol regimen.
