The frequency of labor induction has increased significantly in recent years. Although medically indicated inductions comprise a portion of this increase, elective inductions have increased in frequency as well. Given that elective inductions, by definition, provide no benefit from a strictly medical standpoint, it is particularly important to evaluate whether women who undergo these inductions incur greater risks than those who labor spontaneously. This article will assess whether elective inductions are associated with changes in pregnancy outcomes, and evaluate how these associations are influenced by parity and cervical ripeness.
近年来，引产的频率显著增加。虽然医学指征性引产占了这一增长的一部分，但选择性引产的频率也有所上升。鉴于选择性引产从严格的医学角度来看并无益处，评估接受这些引产的女性是否比自然分娩的女性面临更大风险就显得尤为重要。本文将评估选择性引产是否与妊娠结局的变化相关，并评估这些关联如何受到产次和宫颈成熟度的影响。
