Why The Bishop Score Matters in Induced Labors?

February 9th, 2009 · No Comments

Labor induction is on the rise and too many expectant women face the situation when their doctor wants to induce labor. It is essential for every pregnant woman to educate themselves of the consequences of medical labor induction. A failed labor induction can potentially lead to caesarean delivery. When the labor is induced too early it may cause your baby to born prematurely.

The Bishop Score is used primarily as a pre-induction cervical assessment tool. For a expectant woman to have a successful vaginal birth, her cervix must be soft, effaced and dilated. One of the things you should know prior to labor induction is what your Bishop Score is.
