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: Oxytocin & Membrane sweeping
Women assigned to "Concurrent oxytocin with membrane sweeping" had their cervix swept by inserting the examining finger as high as possible past the internal cervical os, followed by oxytocin infusion the next day
Active Comparator: Oxytocin & Dinoprostone
For women assigned to "Concurrent oxytocin with dinoprostone vaginal insert": The 10mg dinoprostone vaginal insert were placed in the posterior fornix for cervical ripening, followed by oxytocin infusion the next day

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Vaginal delivery within 24 hours
Time Frame: From the time of initiating intervention (i.e.concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) until the time of vaginal delivery, assessed up to 24 hours
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.
From the time of initiating intervention (i.e.concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) until the time of vaginal delivery, assessed up to 24 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Successful labor induction
Time Frame: From the time of initiating intervention (i.e.concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) until the time of active phase of labor ( defined as a cervical dilatation of >=4cm), assessed up to 24 hours
to achieve the active phase of labor corresponding to a cervical dilatation of >=4cm
From the time of initiating intervention (i.e.concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) until the time of active phase of labor ( defined as a cervical dilatation of >=4cm), assessed up to 24 hours
Incidence of cesarean delivery
Time Frame: End of labor induction (assessed up to 120 hours)
From the time of initiating intervention (i.e.concurrent membrane sweeping with dinoprostone or only dinoprostone) until the time of cesarean delivery, assessed up to 120 hours
End of labor induction (assessed up to 120 hours)
The interval from start of oxytocin to delivery
Time Frame: From the time of initiating oxytocin infusion until the time of delivery, assessed up to 120 hours
From the time of initiating oxytocin infusion until the time of delivery, assessed up to 120 hours
