Induction of Labour: Eternal Controversy

چکیده
Induction of labour (IOL) is one of the most frequently used techniques in current obstetrics. According to WHO, 25% of all deliveries in developed countries are induced. Generally, developing countries have lower rates of IOL [1]. The goal is to get the advancement of the delivery before its spontaneous evolution. There are many controversies on this procedure and; therefore, dissimilar guides are used in different hospitals. In addition, it is not a harmless technique and for this reason it is important to have adequate protocols in order to optimize resources and diminish risks [2]. In this review, we present the main controversies related to IOL.
