Misoprostol – IOL – 2017
This document is a research paper that describes a randomized controlled trial comparing the effectiveness of three doses of oral misoprostol versus an intra-cervical Foley catheter for pre-induction cervical ripening in post-dated pregnancies. The study found that the oral misoprostol was more effective for cervical ripening and resulted in a higher rate of induction of labor compared to the Foley catheter. The paper discusses the implications of these findings and highlights the potential benefits of using oral misoprostol for induction of labor.
