Just Pop It: Early AROM After Cervical Ripening Reduces the Time to Delivery
In pregnant patients at term undergoing induction of labor, early time-based artificial rupture of membranes (AROM) within 1 hour of Foley bulb expulsion results in a shorter duration of labor by nearly 9 hours with no significant difference in cesarean delivery rates or maternal or neonatal adverse outcomes.1 (Source: Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine)

Implementation of sonopartogram: multicenter feasibility study
CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive transabdominal and transperineal ultrasound assessment can be successfully used to assess progress in labor and can reduce the level of pain experienced during examination. Ultrasound assessment may be able to replace some transabdominal and VE examinations during labor. This article is protected by copyright.

Characterizing of intra-amniotic inflammatory changes associated with chronic inflammation in the placenta marked by elevated amniotic fluid interferon gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10) in pregnancies complicated by preterm prelabor rupture of membranes
Preterm delivery (PTD), which refers to delivery occurring before 37  weeks of gestation, is a significant contributor to perinatal mortality and morbidity, as extensively supported by research studies [1,2]. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately 13.4 million children worldwide are born preterm [2,3]. The incidence of PTD in developed countries ranges from 5 % to 12 % [2,4,5]. Preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) represents a clinical phenotype of spontaneous PTD, characterized by the rupture of the fetal membranes prior to the onset of labor and before 37 weeks of gestation.

Obstetric and Neonatal Outcomes in Overweight Adolescent Pregnant Mothers
ConclusionOverweight adolescent pregnant women exhibited significantly higher percentages of obstetrical outcomes, like as primary CS, failure to progress, labor induction, postdate delivery, gestational diabetes, and gestational hypertension. Additionally, elevated rates of neonatal complications were found, including macrosomia and NRFS. (Source: The Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology of India)

Vaginal misoprostol versus vaginal dinoprostone for cervical ripening and induction of labour: An individual participant data meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
CONCLUSIONS: Low-dose vaginal misoprostol and vaginal dinoprostone for IOL are comparable in terms of effectiveness and perinatal safety. However, low-dose vaginal misoprostol is likely to lead to a lower rate of composite adverse maternal outcomes than vaginal dinoprostone.PMID:38425020 | DOI:10.1111/1471-0528.17794 (Source: BJOG : An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology)

Parturition at term: induction, second and third stages of labor, and optimal management of life-threatening complications —hemorrhage, infection, and uterine rupture
Childbirth is a defining moment in anyone's life, and it occurs 140 million times per year. Largely a physiologic process, parturition does come with risks; one mother dies every two minutes. These deaths occur mostly among healthy women, and many are considered preventable. For each death, 20 to 30 mothers experience complications that compromise their short- and long-term health. The risk of birth extends to the newborn, and, in 2020, 2.4 million neonates died, 25% in the first day of life. Hence, intrapartum care is an important priority for society.

Applying Tension to the Transcervical Foley Balloon and Delivery Times in Term Nulliparous Women Undergoing Induction of Labor: A Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSION: Applying tension to a transcervical Foley balloon in term nulliparous women undergoing labor induction did not significantly reduce delivery time or improve secondary outcomes.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05404776.PMID:38422505 | DOI:10.1097/AOG.0000000000005546 (Source: Obstetrics and Gynecology)
