Induction of labour using prostaglandin E2 pessaries.

Abstract

The routine method of induction at Queen Charlotte's Maternity Hospital is now by the use of prostaglandin E2 pessaries. The first 502 consecutive patients thus induced are presented: the caesarean section rate for a failed induction with an unfavourable cervix has fallen to 2%. The prostaglandin E2 pessary is highly efficient and acceptable for all cases in which a simple amniotomy will not suffice.
