Comparison of 6‐hour versus 12‐hour cervical ripening balloon protocols in patients with prior cesarean delivery: A retrospective cohort study
Removal of the CRB after 6 h, as opposed to 12 h, does not negatively impact VBAC rates or other key maternal and neonatal outcomes in patients with a previous cesarean delivery. These findings suggest that a shorter CRB placement may be a viable option for this population.
