    Journal: Jugosl Ginekol Opstet; 1982; 22(1-2):39-42. PubMed ID: 7132425.
    Abstract:
    A total of 1229 deliveries in 1981 were analysed for the effect of the induction of labour on its duration, way of completion, and the newborn's vitality. It has been found that induction significantly reduces the duration of labour in primiparae, and in multiparae in particular. In induced labour vacuum extractor (P less than 0.010) and cesarean section (P less than 0.001) and in stimulated labour vacuum extractor (P less than 0.001) are more frequently used. The vitality of children is significantly lower in induced labour (Apgar 8-10: P less than 0.020; Apgar 4-7: P less than 0.010). Stimulation does not influence the distribution of the frequency of children according to the gestation age. There are no unsuccessful induced deliveries but only incorrect indications.
