Trial summary

This study compares the rate of vaginal delivery after induction of labor with misoprostol versus oxytocin in women with prelabor rupture of membranes. Participants will be randomized to receive either oral misoprotsol every four hours until going into labor, or intravenous oxytocin in increasing dose. Read more about this study

About this study

This study compares the rate of vaginal delivery after induction of labor with misoprostol versus oxytocin in women with prelabor rupture of membranes. Participants will be randomized to receive either oral misoprotsol every four hours until going into labor, or intravenous oxytocin in increasing dose.

Read the detailed description

Misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin analogue commonly used for labor induction. It causes uterine contractions and ripening of the cervix. Oxytocin sold under the brand name Pitocin among others, is a medication made from the peptide oxytocin and is used to cause contraction of the uterus to start labor.

This randomized controlled trial will compare induction of labor in women with term premature rupture of the membranes and unripe cervix using misoprostol versus oxytocin. The primary outcome is the rate of vaginal delivery. Secondary outcomes will include cesarean section rate, time interval from induction of labor to delivery, neonatal morbidity, patient satisfaction and side effects, as well as chorioamnionitis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Vaginal delivery rate

    Measured: During delivery

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Operative delivery rate, Cesarean section rate, time interval from induction of labor to delivery

    Measured: During delivery

  2. chorioamnionitis rate

    intra-amniotic infection during or after delivery representing in possible combination of maternal fever, fetal tachycardia, maternal leukocytosis, Histopathologic evidence of infection or inflammation or both in the placenta, fetal membranes, or the umbilical cord vessels

    Measured: During or after delivery up to 7 days

  3. Uterine tachysystole

    Measured: During delivery

  4. Neonatal morbidity

    Apgar score, , ,

    Measured: After delivery until discharge

  5. Neonatal morbidity

    Umbilical Cord Blood Gases

    Measured: immediately after delivery

  6. Neonatal morbidity

    NICU admission

    Measured: up to 7 days after delivery

  7. Neonatal morbidity

    Antibiotic administration

    Measured: up to 7 days after delivery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Misoprostol and Oxytocin in people with Prelabor Rupture of Membranes and Premature Rupture of Membrane, run by sammour.rami at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Vaginal delivery rate (time frame: During delivery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jan 2020.
