Title (english) Cervical Ripening Balloon as a Method of Preinduction – One Center Study Title (croatian) Balon za sazrijevanje cerviksa maternice u predindukciji porođaja - jednocentrična studija Author Vesna Košec Author Ivka Djaković Author Senka Sabolović Rudman Author's institution (Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center) Scientific / art field, BIOMEDICINE AND HEALTHCARE Abstract (english) Cervical ripening can be promoted in many ways, but mechanical methods are among the oldest. Like all other methods, this one also has its pros and cons. Disadvantages compared to pharmacological methods include some maternal discomfort upon manipulation of the cervix, a theoretical increase in the risk of maternal and neonatal infection from the introduction of a foreign body, potential disruption of a low-lying placenta, and increase in the need of oxytocin induction of labor. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of using cervical ripening balloon in preinduction on the mode of delivery. This was a longitudinal, cohort, intervention, non-randomized one center study. Inclusion criteria were term pregnancies with gestational diabetes, oligohydramnios, intrauterine growth restriction, gestational hypertension/preeclampsia and pregnancies after 41 weeks of pregnancy. Preinduction of labor was performed in term pregnancies at Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center. Results in the first 150 women having undergone labor preinduction with cervical ripening balloon were included. Two-sided p values <0.05 were considered significant. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS Version 20.0. The study included 150 women; one woman was excluded from further analyses due to conversion of fetal presentation (head to breech). Indications for labor preinduction were as follows: gestational diabetes, oligohydramnios, intrauterine growth restriction, gestational hypertension/preeclampsia and pregnancies after 41 weeks of pregnancy. Women with normal vaginal delivery (96/149) had lower rates of gestational diabetes and oligohydramnios and used epidural analgesia more frequently. Women with dystocia (32/53) had a significantly longer labor duration and higher neonatal birth weight. In multivariate analysis, multiparity, greater cervical dilatation after balloon removal and use of epidural analgesia were associated with a decreased risk of cesarean section, while the presence of gestational diabetes and oligohydramnios was associated with an increased risk of cesarean section. We found this preinduction method safe and efficient, with a potential to increase the rate of vaginal deliveries.
Abstract (croatian) Sazrijevanje cerviksa maternice može se poticati na nekoliko načina. Najstarije metode su mehaničke metode koje imaju svojih prednosti i nedostataka. Nedostaci u usporedbi s farmakološkim metodama uključuju određenu majčinsku nelagodu pri manipulaciji cerviksom maternice, povećanje rizika od majčine i neonatalne infekcije zbog unošenja stranog tijela, mogućnost ozljede posteljice niskog sijela i povećanu potrebu za uporabom oksitocina u porođaju. Cilj istraživanja bio je procijeniti učinak korištenja balona na sazrijevanje cerviksa maternice u predindukciji porođaja. Provedena je longitudinalna, kohortna, intervencijska, ne-randomizirana studija. Kriteriji za uključivanje bili su terminske trudnoće s gestacijskim dijabetesom, oligohidramnijem, intrauterinim zastojem u fetalnom rastu, gestacijskom hipertenzijom/preeklampsijom i trudnoća nakon navršenih 41 tjedna trudnoće. Studiju smo provodili kod žena s terminskim trudnoćama u Kliničkom bolničkom centru Sestara milosrdnica. Prikazani su rezultati u prvih 150 trudnica kod kojih je provedena predindukcija porođaja cervikalnim balonom. Vrijednosti p<0,05 smatrale su se značajnima. Statistička analiza provedena je pomoću SPSS Version 20.0. Studija je obuhvatila 150 trudnica, a jedna žena je bila isključena iz daljnjih analiza zbog konverzije fetalnog stava (glave u zadak). Indikacije za predindukciju porođaja su bile: gestacijski dijabetes, oligohidramnij, intrauterini zastoj fetalnog rasta, gestacijska hipertenzija/preeklampsija i trudnoća nakon navršenih 41 tjedna trudnoće. Trudnice koje su rodile vaginalno (96/149) imale su manju učestalost gestacijskog dijabetesa i oligohidramnija i kod njih je češće korištena epiduralna analgezija. Trudnice bez napredovanja porođaja (32/53) imale su značajno duže trajanje porođaja i veću tjelesnu težinu novorođenčeta. U multivarijatnoj analizi su multiparitet, veća dilatacija cerviksa nakon uklanjanja balona i primjena epiduralne analgezije bili povezani sa smanjenim rizikom carskog reza, dok je prisutnost gestacijskog dijabetesa i oligohidramnija bila povezana s povećanim rizikom carskog reza. Smatramo da je ova predindukcijska metoda sigurna, učinkovita i može dovesti do povećanja broja vaginalnih porođaja.
