1015 The Effect of latent-phase duration on pregnancy outcomes in nulliparas undergoing induction of labor: Meta-analysis

Failed induction of labor (IOL) is defined as failure to deliver or achieve active labor after an adequate period of oxytocin and rupture of membrane (ROM). Previous studies showed an association between adverse maternal outcomes and longer duration of oxytocin and rupture of membranes (ROM). However, neonatal outcomes were not well-described. We sought to perform a meta-analysis of studies that evaluated outcomes according to the duration of oxytocin and ROM.
