This study tests whether letting women choose how their labour is induced improves their childbirth experience. It compares different ripening techniques, so you may have a say in which one is used.
This trial compares starting labor induction at home versus in the hospital using a small balloon catheter. If you are close to your due date and need to be induced, this study may let you start the process in the comfort of your home.
This study tests whether natural methods can help your cervix prepare for labor on its own, so you may avoid medication-induced labor. It's designed for pregnant people with diet-controlled gestational diabetes who are planning a vaginal delivery at 40 weeks.
This study compares different ways of preparing the cervix (the opening to the womb) before labor is induced. It aims to see if following a standard set of steps leads to better outcomes for mothers and babies.
This study tests whether nipple stimulation is a safe and acceptable way to help start labor in women who are being induced (labor induced) at the hospital. If you participate, you may be asked to use nipple stimulation and answer questions about your experience.
This trial tests a new monitoring system that tracks your baby's heartbeat and your contractions during cervical ripening — the time before labor is induced with a balloon catheter. It aims to see if the system is safe and easy to use, potentially offering a more comfortable alternative to standard monitoring.
