  • Title: [Personal experience with labor induction using prostaglandins 1985-1987].
    Author: Roztocil A, Páral V, Jelínek J, Burnog T.
    Journal: Cesk Gynekol; 1990 Mar; 55(2):88-96. PubMed ID: 2344638.
    Abstract:
    The authors evaluate 56 Labors induced with Enzaprost and 141 with Prostin. The main indication for induction was a postdate pregnancy (33%), rupture of the amniotic sac 24 hours previously without contractions (24.5%) and a planned confinement (23%). An initial dose of 1 microgram of Enzaprost per min. was administered or 1 tablet of Prostin in increasing doses after 30 mins. up to three tablets. There were 87.5% successful Enzaprost inductions and 96.5% successful Prostin inductions. The difference is significant at the 5% level.
