In the past decade, the rates of labor induction at term have doubled from approximately 9% to 23% in the United States and from 10% to 20.4% in China. The majority of women undergoing labor induction requires cervical ripening for the unfavorable cervixes. As globally, it is still required to explore an optimal induction method. Foley catheter was among the oldest mechanical approaches, while prostaglandin E2 vaginal suppository (PGE2) one of the most popular pharmacological agents for cervical ripening. There were studies reporting similar cesarean section rates between these two methods. However, there are no randomized control trials (RCTs) with adequate power to compare their frequencies of severe perinatal complications. The investigators aim to compare the effectiveness and safety of Foley catheter versus PGE2 for induction of labor among term pregnant women with an unfavourable cervix.', 'detailedDescription': "The investigators propose a single center, open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial (1:1 treatment ratio) in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center. Women with a term pregnancy, an indication for induction of labor, and a live singleton fetus at cephalic presentation, intact membranes, an unfavorable cervix, no prior cesarean section or contraindication to vaginal delivery, are eligible to participate. After informed consent, they will be randomized to undergo induction of labor by Foley catheter or PGE2.\n\nOur primary outcomes will be (I) a composite of severe perinatal complications and (II) vaginal delivery. Before the formal recruitment of this RCT, a pilot study with a sample size of 200 pregnant women will be performed."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Women scheduled for induction of labor.\n* Women aged ≥ 18 years old\n* ≥ 37 weeks of gestation\n* Live singleton pregnancy in cephalic presentation\n* Intact membranes\n* Cervical Bishop score \\< 6\n* Informed consent.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Contraindications for vaginal delivery.\n* Prior cesarean section\n* Known hypersensitivity for Foley catheter or PGE2\n* Non-reassuring fetal status\n* Lethal fetal congenital anomaly'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04780269', 'briefTitle': 'Foley Catheter Versus PGE2 for Labor Induction at Term: a Pilot Study', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': "Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center"}, 'officialTitle': 'Foley Catheter Versus Prostaglandin E2 Vaginal Suppository for Labor Induction at Term: a Pilot Study', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '[2020]31201'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Induction of labor with Foley catheter', 'description': 'A Foley catheter will be introduced transcervically in women allocated in this group.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Induction of labor with Foley catheter']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Induction of labor with PGE2', 'description': 'PGE2 (1mg) will be inserted into the posterior vaginal fornix.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Induction of labor with PGE2']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Induction of labor with Foley catheter', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['Foley Catheter'], 'description': 'A Foley catheter will be introduced transcervically in women allocated in this group, with the aid of a vaginal speculum after cervical cleaning with an aseptic solution.
