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.

Labor Induction with Prostaglandins
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1983Prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha have been used for labor induction for more than 10 years. Many investigations have shown that these prostaglandins are effective, and within certain dosage schedules, safe oxytocics, even though the systemic administration is accompanied by side effects, mainly from the gastro-intestinal tract.

T H E K E have been many publications in the recent literature regarding the elective induction of labor. Not all of these papers have reported favorably on the procedure; a few suggest that it is not safe and therefore that it is not justifiable.l, 3, 4.

Labor induction with misoprostol
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1999Misoprostol, a prostaglandin E(1 ) analog, is widely used in the United States for cervical ripening and labor induction. Its use for these indications is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. The only Food and Drug Administration-approved indication in the product labeling is the treatment and prevention of intestinal ulcer disease ...

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

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.

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.

Background: A wide uterocervical angle >95° detected during the second trimester was associated with an increased risk for spontaneous preterm birth. Objective: We aimed to determine whether an ultrasonographic marker, uterocervical angle, correlates ...
