Low-dose Oral Misoprostol after Cervical Ripening with a Double-balloon Catheter: 25 µg or 50 µg?

The study found no difference in the rate of caesarean sections for the different doses of misoprostol. However the rate of vaginal deliveries only occurring after 72 hours was higher in the group treated with 25 µg misoprostol, while more neonates required transfer to the neonatal department in the group receiving 50 µg misoprostol.

Abstract

The study found no difference in the rate of caesarean sections for the different doses of misoprostol. However the rate of vaginal deliveries only occurring after 72 hours was higher in the group treated with 25 µg misoprostol, while more neonates required transfer to the neonatal department in the group receiving 50 µg misoprostol.
