The Predictive Value of Trans-Vaginal Ultrasound Measurements Compared with Bishop Score in Determining Successful Induction of Labor

Objectives: Determining the necessity of cesarean section (C/S) due to failure of induction of labor (IOL) is essential to avoid fetus distress. In this study, the performance of the Bishop score and trans-vaginal ultrasound measurements were compared to predict successful IOL, and the most useful cut-off points were estimated.
