Hi Tania

I too have been checking out the facts on inductions after listening to the
same Obstetrician.  The Nice guidelines say that the mortality rate
is 1 in 3000 at 37 weeks 3 in 3000 at 41 weeks and 6 in 3000 at 43 weeks.
at 40wks 58% of women have delivered
at 41wks 74% of women have delivered
at 42wks 82% of women have delivered.

Due to all of the above the conclusion they make is induction prior to 41
wks increases work load without significantly lowering perinatal mortality.
The whole document can be read on www.nice.org.uk

Also there are some interesting figures on the birthlove site below. These
figures do show the risk for primip section is doubled with induction but
the over all section rate doesn't seem to be altered.  Unless I've
misinterpreted it.

Hi Belinda,

Is this stat published anywhere, or just anecdotal?  A 60% section rate is
twice the rate for the state, and I think twice the average for that
hospital too, and having just heard a leading obstetrician there tell
women
that there is NO risk of an increase in c/s as a result of induction, I'm
trying to get my head around it...

Tania, at the wch the stats are - for primip women indcued before 41
weeks there is a 60% cs rate.

Just wondering if there are any good quality trials about IOL and
increase of c/s?  Have just re-read Enkin, and it does state that IOL
is not associated with an increase in caesarean section rate (but
given that most states here are up around the 30% mark, you have to
wonder what they are comparing that to?), but I thought something came
out of the Uk not long ago disputing this?



Anyone?
