Dr. Navneet Kaur, Dr. Apoorva Malhotra | |
Background- Induction of labour being a routine obstetric practice warrants the need to conduct more and more studies for the advancement of the techniques which aid it. Prostaglandins are a common method of induction of labor. In our study, we compare cervical ripening with intravaginal prostaglandin E1 analogue and the comparitively newer intravaginal prostaglandin E2 pessary with regard to neonatal outcomes of induction. Materials and methods-100 Patients admitted in OBG Department of ASCOMS Hospital jammu with an indication for induction of labour from October 2021 to October 2022 who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study.50 patients were induced with 25µg of intravaginal misoprostol.Rest 50 patients were administered 10 mg intravaginal dinoprostone pessary (insert). The efficacy was compared with respect to neonatal outcome. Results-Misoprostol is more cost-effective and stable at room temperature and has lesser Induction delivery interval than dinoprostone. However with dinoprostone the Nicu admission rate is lesser than with misoprostol. Conclusion- Dinoprostone pessary, is a safe, efficient and a reliable induction agent which may become the method and drug of choice, for induction of labour in the coming years. |
