Abstract
We have observed controversial results from recent studies concerning the use of mechanical pre-induction of labor in mothers with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and persistent unfavourable cervix. The different results relate mainly to the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of mechanical pre-induction in PROM. All studies published so far have consistently reported the use of a Foley balloon. While some studies report an increased risk of infectious complications in conjunction with the use of a Foley ballon for mechanical pre-induction in PROM, other studies do not confirm this risk. The only study using a Cook double balloon catheter is still ongoing.
