Summary

Labor induction is the stimulation of uterine contractions during pregnancy, before labor begins on its own to achieve a vaginal birth.

A health care provider might recommend labor induction for various reasons: primarily when there's concern for a mother's health or a baby's health.

Combined with oxytocin infusion, amniotomy is commonly used in the induction of labor. However the perfect timing of amniotomy is still unknown.

The aim of this study is to determine whether the early amniotomy followed by oxytocin, or initiating induction of labor with oxytocin followed by late amniotomy, is effective to reach active phase of labor.
