Clinical Trial Summary

To compare the use of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) of cervix to the Bishops score prior to induction of labour in term pregnancies, and the ability to predict Caesarean delivery for failure to progress.

Description:

The aim of this prospective study is to compare the use of transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) of cervix to the Bishops score prior to induction of labour in term pregnancies, and the ability to predict Caesarean delivery for failure to progress.
