Abstract
Background: In around 20% of pregnancies across the globe, pregnancy must be induced for different reasons. However, in 20% of all induced deliveries, inducement fails, necessitating a caesarean surgery. Aim of the Study: This may help with effective labor induction by identifying the correct qualities of the applicant. Patients and Methods: We used vaginal misoprostol to induce labor in 100 women after determining their BMI, modified bishop score, transvaginal cervical length, and Posterior cervical angle. These ladies were ≥37 weeks pregnant with a singleton who had a cephalic presentation. Results: We had a 70% success rate with induction, which was followed by a normal vaginal birth. The modified Bishop score, transvaginal cervical length, and posterior cervical angle, on the other hand, had a strong statistical relevance. Conclusion: Vaginal labor induction in term women, misoprostol is extremely promising when their modified Bishop score, transvaginal cervical length, and posterior cervical angle are determined.
