How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Dinoprostone
For women assigned to "No sweep": The only 10mg Dinoprostone vaginal insert were placed in the posterior fornix for cervical ripening
Active Comparator: Concurrent membrane sweeping with Dinoprostone
Women assigned to "Sweep" had their cervix swept by inserting the examining finger as high as possible past the internal cervical os, immediately followed by the placement of a 10mg Dinoprostone vaginal insert in the posterior fornix.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Vaginal delivery within 24 hours
Time Frame: Twenty-four hours of initiating intervention (i.e. membrane sweeping or PG) on the first day of induction
Vaginal delivery within 24 hours is defined as vaginal delivery after 24 hours of initiating intervention (i.e. concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) on the first day of induction.
Twenty-four hours of initiating intervention (i.e. membrane sweeping or PG) on the first day of induction

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cervical change in the bishop scores and cervical lengths
Time Frame: Initiation of oxytocin after removing dinoprostone vaginal insert
  1. Cervical change based on the bishop score and cervical length induced by two cervical ripening methods(concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone vs. dinoprostone)
  2. Incidence of cesarean delivery
  3. Successful labor induction (defined as an ability to achieve the active phase of labor corresponding to a cervical dilatation of >=4cm).
  4. The interval from start of oxytocin to delivery
  5. Incidence of rupture of membranes
  6. Incidences of vaginal bleeding and fever
Initiation of oxytocin after removing dinoprostone vaginal insert
