The rising tide: Trends in induction of labor at term over a 5‐year period at a single centre
Abstract Objective Induction of labor (IOL) is a controversial topic in contemporary obstetric practice, with some suggesting that the increase in elective induction (eIOL) as a potential contributor to increasing cesarean delivery (CD) rates. The objectives of this single‐center study were to examine the rates of IOL, trends in indications for IOL ...

Both might be influenced by maternal habitus. Obesity has become a global epidemic; however, its effect on EFW and the accuracy of the two methods has yet to be ...
