Comparison of intracervical Foley catheter combined with a single dose of vaginal misoprostol tablet or intracervical dinoprostone gel for cervical ripening: a randomised study

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research, 2021
We compared two combined methods for cervical ripening before induction of labour (IOL) Women (n = 150) were randomised into Foley’s-misoprostol (n = 75) and Foley’s-dinoprostone (n = 75) groups.

Early amniotomy after cervical ripening for induction of labor: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2020
BACKGROUND Timing of artificial rupture of membranes, i.e. amniotomy, in induction of labor is controversial, as it has been associated with shorter labors, but also with fetal non-reassuring testing, at times necessitating cesarean delivery ...

Outpatient Cervical Ripening

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
A limited number of studies have provided preliminary data on the efficacy and safety of PGE2 used as an outpatient cervical ripening agent. Multiple inpatient studies have confirmed the effect of PGE2 in favorably changing the cervical score, reducing the incidence of failed inductions and instrumental deliveries, shortening the induction-to-delivery ...

Cervical ripening with the Foley catheter

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2007
AbstractObjective: To evaluate maternal and neonatal outcomes in a large series of patients undergoing cervical ripening with a Foley catheter. Methods: The database of the Labor and Delivery Unit of the University of a teaching hospital in Italy was used to identify consecutive patients with a Bishop score (BS) of 4 or less who underwent pre‐induction

Eosinophils in human cervical ripening

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1997
Cervical ripening has many similarities to an inflammatory reaction. Eosinophil granulocytes are involved in several inflammatory responses. The objective was to investigate the presence of eosinophils in human cervix uteri during different conditions.Cervical biopsies were obtained from non-pregnant (n = 6), women in early pregnancy (n = 11) and from ...

Cervical fetal fibronectin correlates to cervical ripening

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1995
Aim of study. It is well established that the cervical ripeness is of great prognostic value at labor induction. The available methods of measuring the cervical ripeness are not satisfactory. This study was therefore initiated to investigate if there is any correlation between cervical fetal fibronectin and cervical ripening at term.Method.

Double-Balloon Device for 6 Compared With 12 Hours for Cervical Ripening: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2020
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether removal of a double-balloon device for cervical ripening for 6 compared with 12 hours in women with an unfavorable cervix will result in a shorter time to delivery, similar cervical ripening, and without affecting cesarean ...
