Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • mode of delivery

    vaginal delivery, instrumental delivery or cesarean delivery

    immediate

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • composite neonatal outcome

    3 months after delivery

Study Arms (2)

prostaglandins

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

vaginal prostaglandins insertion (PGE2) for cervical ripening and induction

Drug: prostaglandins E2

intracervical balloon catheter with pitocin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

insertion of intra cervical balloon catheter combined with intravenous pitocin for ripening and induction of labor

Device: intracervical balloon catheter combined with pitocin

Interventions

insertion of vaginal PGE2 for up to 30 hours, up to two attempts for cervical ripening and induction

Also known as: dinoprostone slow release pessary
prostaglandins

insertion of Foley catheter intra cervical and inflating the balloon with 50-60 cc of saline, with IV pitocin according to hospital protocol

intracervical balloon catheter with pitocin

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 50 Years
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • singleton pregnancy
  • fetal growth restriction defined as estimated fetal weight between the 3rd and 10th percentile per gestational age and are intended to deliver vaginally
  • Gestational age between 36 and 42 weeks
  • No known fetal anomalies

You may not qualify if:

  • Fetal estimated weight below the 3rd percentile
  • Known fetal anomalies
  • Contraindications for vaginal delivery: breech presentation, abnormal Doppler flow velocimetry of fetal ductus venosus.
  • Oligohydramnios defined as amniotic fluid index below 5 cm
  • Contraindication to the use of prostaglandins
  • Fetal distress requiring emergent cesarean section
  • All other condition preventing vaginal delivery as decided by a senior physician
