Fetomaternal Outcome Among the Pregnant Women Subject to the Induction of Labor.

Introduction Induction of labor (IOL) is characterized by stimulating contractions of the uterus just before the instantaneous onset of labor, with or without amniotomy. According to the recommendation of the World Health Organization (WHO), induction must only be carried out when there is a clear medical need for one and when potential benefits outweigh the expected harm that may be caused by it. The present study was to determine the frequency of fetomaternal outcomes among pregnant women subject to the induction of labor.
