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.

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.

Abstract 1. 1. A rating system is proposed to indicate “readiness for induction.” 2. 2. The factors composing the system are presented and the method of scoring (0, 1, or 2) is outlined. 3. 3. The ideal score is 20. Elective induction should be very successful with any score from 16 to 20 inclusive.

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.

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.

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 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.

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 is the deliberate initiation of labor by artificial means (either mechanic or pharmacologic) in advanced pregnancy, before labor starts spontaneously. Induction of labor has been practiced for a long time, and the list of the means and techniques used for that purpose is long and varied. Many of these have become obsolete and are now
