“Comparison of Misoprostol Ripening Efficacy With Dilapan”
The purpose of this study is to find out if Dilapan works as well as Misoprostol for preparing the mouth of the uterus (cervix) for inducing labor in women who need to undergo this procedure. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of Dilapan for cervical ripening compared to Misoprostol in women undergoing Induction of labor (IOL) at or more than 37 weeks gestation.

Device - Dilapan
Dilapan-S® is a mechanical method for cervical ripening using rods made of a patented hydrogel Aquacryl, it is marketed in form of rods of 3 and 4 mm diameter. It is FDA approved for cervical ripening.
Drug - Misoprostol
25mcg of Misoprostol will be administered orally every 2 hours (maximum of 6 doses) Misoprostol is a prostaglandin E1 analog approved for treatment and prevention of gastric ulcers. The use of Misoprostol appears to be safe and effective for induction of labor when used in low dose.
