Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
Several mechanical and biochemical methods have been used to induce labor throughout modern obstetrics. We review and compare mechanical and medical methods of labor induction, along with several new uterotonic agents such as mifepristone (RU 486) and misoprostol, which can be conveniently administered orally and managed in the outpatient clinic.

I T IS 0~1: opinion that the elective induction of labor has a useful place in present-day obstetrics with advantages to both patient and doctor. If the procedure is applied to the proper patient at the proper time, no serious complications should result.

Abstract 1. 1. A series of 600 cases of elective induction of labor by rupture of the membranes is presented. 2. 2. The method of selection of patients depending on gravidity, history, and condition of the cervix is described. 3. 3. Eighteen per cent of the patients were primigravidas. 4. 4.

Artificial termination of pregnancy, at or near term, is accomplished by cesarean section or by induction of labor. As opposed to the natural or spontaneous onset of labor, these artificial procedures are definitive acts of commission by the doctor for which he assumes responsibility.

Indications for induction of labor should be of such significance that abdominal delivery is justified if satisfactory labor and vaginal delivery fail to occur in a reasonable period. The results of induction of labor in a one year period at the Toronto General Hospital show a low incidence of induction and a low morbidity and mortality.

Induction of labor will affect almost a quarter of all pregnancies, but historically there has been no generally accepted definition of failed induction of labor. Only recently have studies analyzed the lengths of latent labor that are associated with successful labor induction ending in a vaginal delivery, and recommendations for uniformity in the ...

Induction of labor rates have more than doubled nationwide in the past 15 years. The increase in medically induced inductions was slower than the overall increase, suggesting that inductions for marginal or elective reasons rose more rapidly. Elective inductions seem to account for at least half of all inductions and 10% of all deliveries.

Induction of labor constitutes the initiation of regular uterine contractions for the purpose of effecting delivery before spontaneous labor begins. It should not be confused with augmentation of labor, which may constitute a method or series of methods that are applied to effect vaginal delivery after spontaneous labor has occurred.

Abstract Sixty-eight cases of bougie induction of labor have been analyzed, covering a nine-year period from 1940 to 1948, inclusive. The method is described. The literature has been reviewed and compared with the results obtained. In selected cases bougie induction remains a procedure of choice.
