Abstract

Maternal obesity is increasing in the United States and is associated with higher likelihood of cesarean delivery. Induction of labor (IOL) between 39 and 40 weeks may be associated with decreased risk for cesarean. The purpose of this study was to analyze trends in labor induction and likelihood of vaginal delivery stratified by maternal body mass index (BMI).
