ABSTRACT
26
OBJECTIVE: To compare the first stage of labor progress in women undergoing an induction
27
of labor after cesarean to women with spontaneous labor after cesarean.
28
STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of consecutive women admitted
29
for delivery with a vertex-presenting fetus who achieved vaginal delivery after cesarean. We
30
compared women undergoing an induction of labor after cesarean to women with spontaneous
31
labor after cesarean. Labor curves were constructed using a repeated-measures analysis, and
32
interval-censored regression was used to estimate the median time spent to dilate 1 cm, stratified
33
by induction status and adjusted by obesity, macrosomia, epidural, and prior vaginal delivery.
34
RESULTS: Of 473 laboring women with a prior cesarean, 234 (49%) were induced. After
35
adjusting for obesity, macrosomia, epidural, and prior vaginal delivery, women who underwent
36
an induction had significantly longer labors than those women who presented with spontaneous
37
labor. The median time to dilate from 4 cm to 10 cm took 5.6 hours (95% CI 1.8 to 18.0) in the
38
induction group, and 3.2 hours (95% CI 1.0 to 10.3) in the spontaneous labor group, (p
