A prospective randomized controlled trial that compared misoprostol, Foley catheter, and combination misoprostol-Foley catheter for labor induction.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of combination intravaginal misoprostol and intracervical Foley catheter for prelabor cervical ripening. STUDY DESIGN:A prospective, randomized controlled trial was conducted. Women who were undergoing labor induction, with a singleton gestation >or=28 weeks and an unfavorable cervix (Bishop score
