The rates of induction of labor (IOL) are rising worldwide; currently every fourth labor is induced. Prostaglandins and balloon catheters, including Foley catheter (FC), are available for IOL. The vaginal delivery rates are comparable, but FC is associated with lower risk of uterine hyperstimulation and adverse events. The mechanism of FC use consists of direct mechanical dilation of the cervix, and local secretion of endogenous prostaglandins. The aim of this study was to evaluate FC for labor induction in prolonged and post-term pregnancies, in women with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) at term, and in outpatient use. The secondary aim was to investigate cervical biomarkers insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1),...
