Predictors of Vaginal Delivery after Cervical Ripening using a Synthetic Osmotic Dilator

ConclusionBishop scores after cervical ripening with Dilapan-S are good predictors of vaginal delivery. Bishop scores < 5 post Dilapan-S may warrant further cervical ripening. Further level 1 trials are needed to compare osmotic dilators to other ripening methods.
