- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether the combination of transcervical Foley catheter with intravenous oxytocin as a method for induction of labor in patients with previous caesarean section is more effective than using only intravenous oxytocin in achieving an active phase of labor and therefore increasing the frequency of vaginal delivery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Case-control study performed at the Nuevo Sanatorio Durango Hospital Center from March 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018. Case-control study carried out at the New Sanatorio Durango Hospital Center from March 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018. Inclusion criteria: gestational age greater than or equal to 37 weeks, previous caesarean section with low transverse incision (Kerr), pregnancy unique, fetus in cephalic presentation. Two groups were created: group A, induction of labor with intravenous oxytocin and group B induction with transcervical foley plus oxytocin. The categorical variables are described with percentages and percentages, and the numerical variables with means ± standard deviation or median. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and Student's t test were used; A value of p <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: Patients were studied, in group A of 25 patients, 16/25 achieved an active phase of labor and 14/25 had vaginal resolution; group B of 25 patients, 25/25 reached the active phase and 17/25 had vaginal resolution, we obtained a value of p > 0.05 (95%CI: 0.16-0.4). The time in labor hours: group A with an average of 17.11 hours and in group B of 12.44, p value < 0.05 (95%CI: 2.4-6.2 and 2.4-6.3). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of transcervical Foley catheter with oxytocin proved to be highly effective and safe for the induction of labor in patients with a previous caesarean section, significantly reducing labor time and increasing the frequency of patients who achieve an active dose of labor.
