Analysis of Variables that Influence the Success Rates of Induction of Labor with Misoprostol: A Retrospective Observational Study.

caesarean section of 22.79% found in the study, which is significantly lower than the total group of patients monitored in our hospital. This finding is in line with what is registered in the literature, and in a meta-analysis the cesarean rate was quite variable between the compared trials, with an overall trend of reduction with vaginal misoprostol (34 trials, RR (Relative Risk) 0.95, 95% CI (Confidence Interval) 0, 87 to 1.03). 17 Regarding the time of delivery after the start of induction, we observed that almost 70% of the patients delivered within 24 hours, and approximately 27% delivered within 12 hours of the start of induction.
