Article Synopsis
- This study compares the effectiveness of sublingual misoprostol and Foley catheter for cervical ripening and labor induction in women with preeclampsia or gestational hypertension.
- A total of 144 participants were randomly assigned to either the misoprostol group or the Foley catheter group, with significant differences found in cervical ripening time and delivery outcomes favoring the misoprostol group.
- The results indicate that sublingual misoprostol not only shortens the time to cervical ripening and delivery but also has minimal maternal complications compared to the Foley catheter method.
