Cervical Ripening: An Evaluation of Current Methods

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1988
EDITORIAL COMMENT: The state of the cervix is an important factor in determining the outcome of induction of labour. Arulkumaran and colleagues reported (Aust NZ J Obstet Gynaecol 1985; 25: 190–193) that 65% of nulliparas with an unfavourable cervix, who had induction of labour performed by amniotomy and simultaneous oxytocin infusion, came to ...

Randomized control trial comparing hygroscopic cervical dilators to cervical ripening balloon for outpatient cervical ripening

American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology MFM
Outpatient term preinduction cervical ripening with mechanical agents has been associated with reduced length of stay, decreased cesarean delivery rates, low maternal and neonatal complications, and increased incidence of vaginal delivery within 24 hours.This study aimed to demonstrate equivalent efficacy between synthetic hygroscopic dilators and the ...

Macrophages and not granulocytes are involved in cervical ripening

Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 2005
To clarify the role of leucocytes in human cervical ripening and dilatation, cervical biopsies were obtained from six non-pregnant women, eight women undergoing early termination of pregnancy, 18 pregnant women undergoing elective Caesarean section at term (both with and without a ripe cervix as determined by Bishop score) and 11 women after term ...

Prepidil® compared to Propess® for cervical ripening

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2002
To compare the efficacy and safety of intracervical PGE(2) gel (Prepidil) with intravaginal PGE(2) insert (Propess) in cervical ripening and induction of labour.This was a retrospective analysis of patients with single pregnancies, intact membranes and a viable fetus who required cervical ripening.
