Women who fulfil the inclusion criteria and who are planned for labour induction will be recruited. Bishop score, cervical length, and the presence of cervical glandular area (CGA) will be documented for every patient up to 12 hours prior to the induction process, and patient information and maternal and neonatal outcome will be documented following the delivery.
Patient consent to participate in the study will be retrieved following the medical decision of labor induction and the mode of induction and following the patient consent to the induction. Bishop score, cervical length, and the presence of cervical glandular area (CGA) will be documented for every patient up to 12 hours prior to the induction process. The method of induction, data regarding patient demographics, the progress of labor, and the maternal and neonatal outcome will be documented following the delivery.
