Early Amniotomy Following Transcervical Foley Balloon in the Induction of Labor: a Randomized Clinical Trial
Study Overview

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This will be an unblinded randomized clinical trial. The investigators will recruit 174 pregnant women undergoing induction of labor. Recruitment will occur on the Labor and Delivery unit at the time of induction, after the decision has been made to place a Foley balloon for cervical ripening. Enrolled subjects will be randomized to early or delayed amniotomy.
Subjects randomized to early amniotomy will undergo amniotomy within 2 hours of Foley balloon removal. Subjects randomized to delayed amniotomy will undergo amniotomy at least 4 hours after Foley balloon removal.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Early amniotomy
Subjects randomized to this arm will undergo amniotomy within 2 hours of removal of Foley balloon.

Artificial rupture of amniotic membranes
The Foley balloon is inserted transcervically and inflated to a volume of 60 cc.
It may be spontaneously expelled or manually removed if in place for 12 hours.
