Comparison Between Electve Labour Induction and Spontaneous Onset of Labour in Prolonged Pregnancy 75

Abstract: Prolonged pregnancy is the most frequent reason for induction of labour as obstetricians are concerned about the risk of prolonged pregnancy on both fetus and mothers. The study aimed to determine the effects and risks of labour induction on delivery outcome compared to spontaneous labour in pregnant women with prolonged pregnancy. This is a prospective case control study done in Basra Maternity and Child Hospital between January 2007 and may 2008 included 200 pregnant women at 42 weeks of gestation who were c… Show more

“…The main maternal morbidity that complicates postdate pregnancy was postpartum haemorrhage consequent to uterine atony (16.4%) followed by prolonged labour (15.2%) and perineal tears (5.2%), which were significantly higher in the cases than controls. Nikita (14) in civil hospital, Ahmedabad reported that the most frequent maternal complications were prolonged labour (68.2%) followed by postpartum haemorrhage (40.9%), while Alyasin (12) in Basrah reported no difference between the cases and the controls regarding postpartum blood loss, but in agreement with our study regarding neonatal complications. In our study, high parity (≥5) was associated with higher postpartum haemorrhage in both the case and control groups.…”

“…Orji EO et al [10] came to the conclusion that more women in the spontaneous group gave birth vaginally compared to those in the induced group and that there were fewer caesarean sections performed on spontaneous group members. Alyasin ZT et al [11], conducted a study and they compared elective labour induction with spontaneous onset of labour in post-dated pregnancy and they concluded that rate of caesarean section was more in induced group. In a study done by Jankiraman V et al [12], they concluded that induced nulliparous had increased rate of caesarean section compared spontaneous onset labour.…”
