Labor induction at 39 weeks for low-risk pregnant women in China
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares inducing labor at 39 weeks to waiting for natural labor in women with low-risk pregnancies. It aims to see if planned induction leads to better outcomes for mothers and babies.

This study compares two plans for first-time mothers: inducing labor at 39 weeks versus waiting for labor to start on its own. It aims to see whether induction lowers the chance of needing a C-section in low-risk pregnancies.
This study looks at the best timing to start labor (induction) during pregnancy for people with a higher body weight. It may help reduce risks by comparing earlier vs later induction in otherwise eligible pregnancies.
This trial tests whether involving first-time mothers in decisions about labor induction can reduce anxiety, improve confidence, and lead to better birth outcomes. It is for women who are expecting a natural delivery with a single, healthy baby in head-down position.
This study helps doctors predict whether labor induction (starting labor with medication) will be successful for women having their first baby. By understanding which women are more likely to have a vaginal delivery versus a cesarean section, doctors can better plan care.
This trial tests a new sensor system (called INGA) to monitor your baby's heartbeat and your contractions during labor induction. It is for full-term pregnant women with an unripe cervix who are planning to have labor started using a balloon catheter.
This trial tests two different methods of preparing the cervix for labor induction in first-time mothers. The goal is to see which approach is more likely to lead to a vaginal delivery.
