Objective To assess whether prolonged induction of labor was associated with increased maternal or neonatal morbidity. Study Design We performed a retrospective cohort study of women undergoing induction of labor at a single institution. We included women with singletons ≥ 36 weeks with initial cervical dilation ≤4 cm. Prolonged induction of labor was defined as lasting > 36 hours from the time of initial method to delivery. A 2-to-1 propensity score-matched analysis was performed between women with and those without prolonged induction of labor. Maternal outcomes were cesarean delivery, chorioamnionitis, endometritis, postpartum hemorrhage, severe perineal laceration, and length of postpartum admission. Neonatal outcomes included Apgar scores, umbilical artery pH, and neonatal intensive care admission. Results Among 2,021 women, 407 (20.1%) had a prolonged induction. In unadjusted analyses, prolonged induction of labor was associated with increased cesarean delivery and chorioamnionitis. After 2-to-1 propensity score matching, there were 267 women with prolonged induction and 424 controls. Women with prolonged induction of labor had higher rates of cesarean delivery (35.6 vs. 16%, p < 0.001), chorioamnionitis (14.2 vs. 4.7%, p < 0.001), endometritis (6.4 vs. 1.9%, p = 0.002), and postpartum hemorrhage (18.8 vs. 11.9%, p = 0.008). There were no significant differences in neonatal outcomes. Conclusion Overall length of induction impacts maternal outcome.

Objective We sought to evaluate differences in pregnancy outcomes following early amniotomy in women with class III obesity (body mass index ≥40 kg/m2) undergoing induction of labor. Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study of women with class III obesity undergoing term induction of labor from January 2007 to February 2013. Early amniotomy was defined as artificial membrane rupture at less than 4 cm cervical dilation. The primary outcome was cesarean delivery. Secondary outcomes included length of labor, a maternal morbidity composite, and a neonatal morbidity composite. A subgroup analysis examined the effect of parity. Multivariable logistic regression was used to adjust for covariates. Results Of 285 women meeting inclusion criteria, 107 (37.5%) underwent early amniotomy and 178 (62.5%) underwent late amniotomy. Early amniotomy was associated with cesarean delivery after multivariable adjustments (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.21–3.47). There were no significant differences in length of labor or maternal and neonatal morbidity between groups. When stratified by parity, early amniotomy was associated with increased cesarean delivery (aOR, 3.10; 95% CI, 1.47–6.58) only in nulliparous women. Conclusion Early amniotomy among class III obese women, especially nulliparous women, undergoing labor induction may be associated with an increased risk of cesarean delivery.

Introduction: Foley catheter promotes cervix priming by a direct mechanical effect of distension.Material and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary hospital, including all cases of induction of labor with Foley catheter between September 1, 2013 and November 30, 2015. Women were eligible if they had a singleton pregnancy with a Bishop score < 6 and a gestational age ≥ 41 weeks or a medical indication for induction of labor. The primary outcome was the Bishop score variation (difference between Bishop score before and after insertion of Foley catheter). Mode of delivery, induction-to-delivery time, uterine tachysystole with fetal decelerations, peripartum fever ≥ 38º C, maternal pain and mortality were also analyzed.Results: Within 201 inductions with Foley catheter, average increase in Bishop score after catheter placement was three (1 - 7), with only 5% (11/201) of unmodified cervix after catheter removal/extrusion. Vaginal delivery rate was 71% (142/201) and in women with a previous cesarean section (n = 40) was 37% (15/40). Average induction-to-delivery time was 38 hours (4 - 120). Uterine infection rate was 3% (6/201). There was only one case of significant vaginal bleeding which required immediate catheter removal. There has been no significative maternal or neonatal morbidity.Discussion/Conclusion: Foley catheter is a safe and effective method of cervical priming for women with an unfavorable cervix, even in the case of a previous cesarean delivery.
