Trial Of Misoprostol And Dinoprostone Vaginal Pessaries for Cervical Priming (TROMAD Study)

Summary

Most studies of labour induction with misoprostol used doses higher than 25mg and intervals of 3-4 hours. We studied a low-dose regime of 25mg misoprostol and compared its efficacy as single dose or double dose with dosing interval of 6 hours to our current regime of 3 mg dinoprostone pessary.
