Summary

This is a randomized study evaluating the impact of pre-hospital cervical ripening with a transcervical Foley balloon before labor induction in full-term pregnancies on the length of inpatient labor induction and maternal satisfaction with the labor induction process. The investigators hypothesize that women who receive pre-hospital cervical ripening will have a shorter duration of inpatient labor induction as compared to women without pre-hospital cervical ripening.
