Summary

The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the effectiveness of membrane stripping in cervical ripening compared to double balloon catheter induction.

The study population consists of women undergoing labor induction.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Is membrane stripping as effective as double balloon catheter induction in cervical ripening?
2. What is the influence of membrane stripping on the time required for cervical ripening, delivery duration, and maternal and fetal outcomes compared to balloon induction.

Conditions

  • Labor, Induced
  • Cervical Ripening
  • Balloon Induction
  • Membrane Stripping
  • Pregnancy Related
  • Induction of Birth

Interventions

DEVICE

Double Baloon Catheter

A double Baloon Catheter will be inserted for 12 hours to one of the arms of the study

PROCEDURE

Membrane Stripping

Stripping will be considered as 3-5 rotations of separating the amniotic sac from the cervix and will be perfomed twice (every 4-6 hours)

DRUG
