Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • STAI questionnaire score

    This is a validated questionnaire for the assessment of state anxiety called the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). It includes 20 items presenting feelings characteristic of anxiety. Participants will be asked to rate how much each of the described feelings characterizes them at the moment on a scale ranging from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much so). The final score on each questionnaire is obtained by summing all the ratings, after reversing the scale on the positively worded items. A higher score indicates a higher level of anxiety.

    Patient in both the study and the control groups will be asked to complete the STAI questionnaire twice as detailed below: • Prior to labor induction • After completion of IOL (either immediately after insertion of EAB or first PGE2 tablet).

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • satisfaction questionnaire

    After completion of IOL (either immediately after insertion of EAB or first PGE2 tablet).

Study Arms (2)

Personalized video group

EXPERIMENTAL

In the video group patients will watch a personalized video prior to initiation of IOL in addition to standard counseling.

Other: Personalized video

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients will receive only standard counselling prior to initiation of IOL.

Interventions

After enrollment and assignment to the intervention group, patients will receive a link to a personalized video describing the different induction methods by a text message.

Also known as: Video group
Personalized video group
