“…The use of Foley catheter for cervical ripening did not result in signi cant improvement in the Bishop score. This was in contrast to our study whereby the improvement was signi cant in the outpatient group (13,14). The reason was unclear as the initial Bishop score was similar in all these studies.…”

“…The safety of Foley catheter cervical ripening was apparent as there were neither NICU admission nor meconium aspiration syndrome and there was no signi cant difference in the incidence of neonatal sepsis. Not surprisingly, the caesarean delivery rate was similar between the two groups which were in agreement with the previous published studies (12)(13)(14). However, one study showed signi cantly higher rate of caesarean section due to failed labor induction in the outpatient group (13).…”

“…4 Given the prevalence and length of this IP procedure, some have suggested an alternative-outpatient (OP) cervical ripening. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Evidence suggests that OP cervical ripening is safe in appropriately chosen patients and is associated with improved patient satisfaction. The safety of OP transcervical balloons is demonstrated by the low rate of adverse events in many studies, including multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs).…”

“…There are commercially available Foley catheters that are designed to hold higher volumes, as were used in the trial by Gu et al Until the safety concerns can be assessed, these catheters should be preferred over smaller balloons that are filled past capacity. Increased volume in the Foley catheter may increase discomfort, lead to more nursing intervention during the ripening period, and may steer providers away from more non‐intervention settings (outpatient ripening) . Although these issues have not been studied, they remain theoretical concerns.…”
