Patients’ acceptance toward elective induction of labor at 39th week of gestation among low-risk pregnancies in a tertiary hospital in Vietnam: the PALI study
Awareness of the induction of labor among pregnant women in Vietnam remains limited. More than half of women who do not support eIOL believe it could be harmful to the fetus. The acceptance rate for eIOL declines as the pregnancy approaches the due date because of adverse impacts from relatives and medical staff. These findings underscore the importance of comprehensive medical counseling for pregnant women and their families, as well as improving the healthcare providers' awareness regarding the advantages and disadvantages of induction of labor.
