Induction of Labor with Prostaglandin
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 197140 patients received either prostaglandin (PG)F2alpha or oxytocin to induce term labor. The 2 groups were comparable with respect to cervical status prior to dilatation fetal station and parity. The mean maximum dose for oxytocin was 8.2 mU/min for the group with minimal cervical dilatation and 5.6 mU for those with more dilatation.

The use of Pitocin induction is recommended only during intercurrent eclampsia or possibly for eclampsia with complications, provided the eclamptic symptoms can be controlled for an adequate time to permit labor and ...

Determining the optimal timing for induction of labor is critical in minimizing the risks to maternal and fetal health. While data are available to guide us in some clinical situations, such as hypertension and diabetes, many gaps in knowledge still exist in others, including cholestasis of pregnancy, fetal anomalies, and placental abruption.

Induction of labor has increased from 9% to 18% of all U.S. deliveries in recent years. Several useful oxytocin induction protocols are available, both from the ACOG Practice Bulletin #10 and institutional sources. Higher-dose protocols tend to result in fewer cesarean deliveries for dystocia but more "fetal distress." There is no consensus as to which

Indications for Induction of Labor
MCN, The American Journal of Maternal/Child Nursing, 1993Despite all the new technology, the research being conducted, and progress in the field of obstetrics, much controversy remains concerning the management of the high-risk patient and when--or whether--to induce labor. One factor complicating the discussion is that health centers vary in the services they offer. Many are small, lacking a high-risk labor
