Methods of induction of labor in women with obesity: A secondary analysis of two multicenter randomized controlled trials

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 470-478, March 2024.
In women with obesity, induction of labor with a Foley catheter is slightly less favorable compared with oral misoprostol or prostaglandin gel in regards to method failure. There was no significant difference in mode of delivery, although an increase in cesarean section rate with the use of a Foley catheter cannot be ruled out.
