Cook´s Balloon Versus Dinoprostone for Labor Induction of Term Pregnancies With Fetal Growth Restriction

Plain-language summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare how two methods for cervical ripening work in a population of singleton pregnancies with late-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) at term. The main question it aims to answer is whether Cook´s balloon (a mechanical method) is superior to vaginal dinoprostone (a pharmacological method) in achieving a vaginal delivery, without increasing neonatal morbidity. Participants will be randomized to receive Cook´s balloon (experimental group) or vaginal dinoprostone (control group) for cervical ripening. Researchers will compare both groups to see if Cook´s balloon is associated with a higher rate of vaginal delivery than vaginal dinoprostone and is not related to increased neonatal morbidity.
