| Popis | Mechanical and medicamentous methods have been used for cervical ripening prior to labor induction. Mechanical methods were extensively replaced by pharmacological methods during the last decades. However recently there is a trend of reintroducing them for clinical use because of availability of sterile and efficious devices and various contraindications limiting medica¬tion with prostaglandins. Documented clinical efficacy and safety of Dilapan-S in females with/without caesarean section in medical history are lacking. The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of use of the synthetic osmotic dilator Dilapan-S for cervical ripening prior to labor induction according to defined criteria and to compare results in females with/without caesarean section in medical history. |
