Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Now-a-days oral mifepristone or oral misoprostol, oxytocin and surgical method or foley catheters these three are the common methods are use for termination of IUFD pregnancy. Objective: Our main objective was to estimate the effectiveness of mechanical induction versus drug induction in termination of pregnancy with IUFD. Method: This randomized clinical trial study was done at tertiary medical college and hospital from 2016 to 2018. During the study all patients were divided into two groups by simple lottery method. Group-I was the misoprostol group, where misoprostol vaginal tablet was used for cervical ripening. Group-II was Foley’s catheter group, where cervical ripening was done by using intra cervical extra amniotic Foley’s catheter. Group-III oxytocin, Group-IV combined method drug and Foley catheter. Results: Combination of balloon catheter PG, Oxytocin showed better result than only PGE1 & or PGE2. Conclusion: To arrive at a definite conclusion, it is suggested that a long-term study with larger number of subjects need to be carried out to make a plan of action in the selection of method of induction of labour for pregnant women.
