No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine if a cervical hardness score (determined by cervical ultrasound with elastography) can predict delivery mode (vaginal versus cesarian for slow dilatation (more than 2-3h without fetal suffering) regardless of the induction mode (ocytocin alone or with an intravaginal device releasing PGE2).

Conditions

  • Labor, Induced

Interventions

DEVICE

Cervical ultrasound with elastography

Following routine vaginal exam with determination of Bishop's score, cervical ultrasound with elastography will be used to determine a cervical hardness score varying from 1 to 10. Patients are then hospitalized and labor induced 12 to 48 hours after the elastography.
