NCT02196103

Brief Summary

Induction of labor in women desiring TOLAC has long been a topic of controversy. The paucity of published data on mechanical cervical ripening in the setting of TOLAC and term PROM has led us to undertake the present clinical trial.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 45 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Diagnosed to be pregnant with PROM at \>34 weeks. Rupture of membranes will be determine clinically and confirmed by positive Nitrazine test.
  • Found to have an unripe cervix in a speculum examination.
  • Singleton pregnancy in a vertex presentation well applied to the cervix and absence of significant and regular uterine contractions (3-5/10 Min)
  • Previous on cesarian section.
  • Willingness to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study.
  • Have signed an informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any contraindication for the vaginal delivery (i.e. placenta previa, non vertex presentation).
  • Regular uterine contractions (3-5/10 min).
  • Evidence of chorio-amnionitis (T 37.6 celsious Degree with uterine tenderness and maternal or fetal tachycardia or purulent discharge or WBC\>/=20,000)
  • Suspected placental abruption or presence of a significant hemorrhage.
  • Non-reassuring fetal status (as determined by fetal heart rate monitoring and/or bio-physical profile) necessitating immediate intervention.
