Labor Induction at 41+0 Gestational Weeks or Expectant Management for the Nulliparous Woman: The Finnish Randomized Controlled Multicenter Trial
(Abstracted from Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand 2024;103:505–511) As gestational age advances in term pregnancies, the risks of neonatal and maternal morbidity increase. Labor induction prior to 41 weeks’ gestation has been shown to decrease the rates of stillbirth and other complications without increases in the rates of cesarean delivery (CD) or costs.
