Summary

Induction of labor is a common obstetric procedure. Foley catheter is recommended by WHO for cervical ripening. Insertion is typically speculum guided but digital insertion has been reported to be faster, better tolerated and with similar insertion success rate compared to speculum guided insertion in a mixed population of nulliparas and multiparas. We evaluated the ease, maternal satisfaction and success rate of digital compared to speculum guided insertion of Foley catheter for induction of labor in parous women with unripe cervixes based on Bishop score\<6.

Conditions
