Women's knowledge about labour induction and its link to their experience
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at what pregnant women know about having their labour induced and how that knowledge relates to their experience. It involves filling out questionnaires and possibly an interview about your knowledge and feelings about induction.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are expecting only one baby (singleton pregnancy).
