Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of the intracervical Foley catheter and vaginal misoprostol for cervical ripening in pregnant women with a medical indication for labor induction with an unfavorable cervical state; Secondary Objective: Determine the time difference in hours from the start of cervical ripening to the active period of labor between both groups. ? Determine the time difference in hours from the start of cervical ripening to delivery between both groups. ? Determine the type of delivery: eutocic, instrumented or cesarean section. ? Compare the Apgar test at the first minute and at the fifth minutes of life between both groups. ? Determine the presence of alterations in uterine dynamics during ripening in both groups. ? Determine the presence of FHR alterations during ripening in both groups. ? Compare the requeriments of analgesia during cervical ripening between both groups. ? To compare the requirements of induction with exogenous oxytocin after cervical ripening in both groups ; Primary end point(s): ? Bishop test pre-maturation (0-5 points) ? Bishop test pre-induction (0-15 points) ? Uterine dynamics during ripening. ? Alterations of the FHR during ripening: YES / NO ; Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Bishop test: 24 hours. The uterine dynamics and the alterations of the FHR during ripening: every 4 hours.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): ? Time in hours from the start of cervical ripening to the active period of labor ? Time in hours from the start of cervical ripening to delivery ? Termination of delivery: eutocic, instrumented, cesarean. ? Cesarean reason: induction failure, risk of loss of fetal well-being, parity, disproportion, anomalous presentation and others. ? Maternal age ? Parity: nulliparous / multiparous ? Weeks of gestation ? Apgar at minute and five minutes of life. ? Need for analgesia during maturation: YES / NO ? Induction with exogenous oxytocin after maturation: SI / NO ? Membrane rupture: Spontaneous / Artificial ? Epidural analgesia: YES / NO ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of labor
