Outpatient Cervical Ripening

NCT04041687 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 35

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The process of labor induction can mean several hours or even days spent as an inpatient prior to delivery. These prolonged hospital admissions contribute to increased financial burden on both patients and hospital systems, dissatisfaction with induction length, and staffing concerns. Several obstetric practices in the U.S. have already incorporated outpatient cervical ripening (the beginning of the induction process) into their regular practices. The investigators aim to determine if outpatient cervical ripening is a safe, non-inferior, and preferred option to the traditional inpatient induction process.
