Summary

Women undergoing mechanical cervical ripening for labor induction will be randomized to Dilapan-S® versus Foley bulb. The investigators hypothesized that osmotic cervical dilators (Dilapan-S®) are as effective as Foley bulb catheter in rates of vaginal delivery.

Conditions

  • Pre-induction Dilation of Cervix

Interventions

DEVICE

Dilapan

Using a sterile speculum, the cervix is visualized and cleaned with iodine. Under direct visualization, synthetic osmotic dilators (Dilapan-S) are inserted into the cervical canal with special attention to cross through the internal os.

DEVICE

Foley Catheter

Using a sterile speculum, the cervix is visualized and cleaned with iodine. Under direct visualization, a Foley catheter is inserted into the cervix and the balloon is filled with 60 ml of sterile 0.9% NaCl.
