Study Arms (3)
Extension of propess+/-second propess
ACTIVE COMPARATORWomen will have the initial slow-release Dinoprostone pessary left in place for six more hours (total of 30 hours in place) then removed followed by vaginal assessment 48 hours after the start of labour induction and insertion of a second slow-release pessary if required
Prostin
ACTIVE COMPARATORWomen will have the initial slow-release Dinoprostone pessary removed followed by insertion of quick-release Dinoprostone tablet (Prostin® 3 mg Dinoprostone vaginal tablet; Pfizer, UK) high in the posterior vaginal fornix immediately after removal of the slow-release pessary. The tablet will be left for 6 hours followed by vaginal reassessment and insertion of a second tablet if ARM is still not achievable.
Dilapan-S
ACTIVE COMPARATORWomen will have the initial slow-release Dinoprostone pessary removed followed by insertion of 1-5 Osmotic cervical rods (Dilapan-S® Aquacryl hydrogel rod; HPSRx Enterprises, USA) by a senior obstetrician or a midwife into the cervical canal, immediately after removal of the slow-release pessary using a vaginal speculum and a holder. The rods will be left for 12-24 hours.
