Abstract

The aim of the present study was to assess indications for induction, various methods of induction used, the mode of delivery and study of the maternal and foetal outcome. Inclusion criteria were singleton pregnancies with cephalic presentation. Multifetal pregnancies, pregnancies, previous caesarean sections were excluded. Indications, pre-induction Bishop scores, mode of delivery and adverse maternal and foetal outcomes were registered. Most common indications were post datism (57.78 %), premature rupture of membranes (22.22 %), oligohydramnios (13.33 %), Non reassuring foetal heart status (4.44 %), & PIH (2.22%). About 84 % of inductions were done at gestational age 37 weeks and more. Induction of labour resulted in normal vaginal delivery in 60% of cases.
