Foley catheter for induction of labor after cesarean section

Induction of labor may be necessary in around twenty-five to thirty percent of a woman's subsequent pregnancies when she has already given birth through cesarean section. During our research, the objective had been to ascertain the rate of spontaneous vaginal birth, rate of cesarean section, and rate of complications that followed the induction of labor with transcervical foley catheter in females who had previously had 1 cesarean section. This retrospective cohort trial was performed in the largest city in Palestine at a tertiary teaching hospital. In subsequent pregnancy, pregnant cases with a history of a prior CS delivery (n = 306) underwent labor induction at term with a Foley catheter. Women who underwent labor induction with transcervical foley catheter at Al-Ahli Hospital in Hebron, Palestine. From April 2017 until March 2020.

The frequency of postpartum hemorrhage is 30 percent, the most prevalent complication. 10 percent and 5 percent of mothers experienced intrapartum and postpartum infections, correspondingly. 5% of newborns had a confirmed infection, and there was one perinatal fatality related to uterine rupture.
