Perspectives and experiences of induction of labour: An Australian cross-sectional study
This research provides comprehensive exploration of women's experiences of IOL in one of Australia's largest tertiary maternity services. Findings report common and divergent perspectives useful to support clinical care reform and service redesign. Remaining gaps in evidence are highlighted with recommendations for future research including addressing the rates of primiparous IOL, the impact of continuity of midwifery carer on IOL experience outcomes; and Aboriginal women's IOL experiences specifically.
