Comparison of Outpatient Foley Bulb Induction to Traditional Induction of Labor [18J]

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2018
INTRODUCTION: More than 20% of pregnant women in the U.S. undergo induction. Due to an unfavorable cervix, many of the women presenting for induction experience longer labor times, increased rates of cesarean section and increased healthcare costs. The purpose of the study was to examine the difference in cesarean section rates,

In patients needing a postdates induction of labor, do outpatient mechanical inductions with single-balloon or double-balloon catheters reduce overall induction time?

Evidence-Based Practice, 2020
In patient with various indications for the induction of labor, including postdates, outpatient-based mechanical cervical ripening does not shorten the overall induction-to-delivery time (SOR:A, consistent randomized controlled trials [RCTs]).
