Official title
Low-Dose Versus High-Dose Oxytocin Dosing for Induction and Augmentation of Labor: A Randomized Control Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare oxytocin infusion rates for induction and augmentation of labor in nulliparous women. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect length of induction to delivery interval? * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect mode of delivery? * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect maternal and neonatal outcomes? Participants will be randomized to either low- or high-dose oxytocin groups: * The low dose group will receive an infusion to start at 2 milli-units/min and will be increased by 2 milli-units/min every 20 minutes. The maximum rate of infusion is 40 milli-units/min. * The high dose group will receive an infusion to start at 6 milli-units/min and will be increased by 6 milli-units/min every 20 minutes. Maximum rate of infusion is 40 milli-units/min.
