Comparison of Intracervical Foley's Catheter With Vaginal Misoprostol Versus Intravaginal Misoprostol Alone for Cervical Ripening and Induction of Labor.

Introduction Induction of labor implies stimulation of contractions before the spontaneous onset of labor, with or without membranes. Augmentation refers to the enhancement of spontaneous contractions that are considered inadequate because of failed cervical and fetal descent. This study compared the effectiveness of intracervical Foley catheter insertion and vaginal misoprostol versus only vaginal misoprostol in the induction of labor and other outcomes relted to it.

A Randomized Control Trial of 3 IU IV Oxytocin Bolus with 7 IU Oxytocin Infusion versus 10 IU Oxytocin Infusion During Cesarean Section for Prevention of Postpartum Hemorrhage.

Purpose: Oxytocin is the preferred choice for prophylaxis and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage. Intravenous infusion has been a widely accepted route for Oxytocin administration. However, intravenous bolus route is not a readily preferred route due to apprehensions regarding hypotension that it may cause.

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage is the most common cause of maternal death. Oxytocin is the standard therapy for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage, but it requires cold storage, which is not available in many countries. In a large trial, we compared a novel formulation of heat-stable carbetocin with oxytocin.
