Abstract

height, maternal age, and birth weight, but not cervical length and Bishop score, were significantly associated with cesarean delivery for failure to progress. Conclusions: Transvaginal sonographic measurement of cervical length is a useful and independent predictor of failed labor induction in term pregnancy and appears to be a better predictor than the Bishop score. Both ultrasonographically measured cervical length and Bishop score appear to be of poor predictive value for the likelihood of caesarean delivery for failure to progress in women undergoing induction of labor.
