Résumé (français)  :

Abstract (English)  :

Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) occurs in 8% of term deliveries. In this situation labour induction with prostaglandins, compared with expectant management, results in a reduced risk of chorioamnionitis, neonatal antibiotic therapy, neonatal intensive care (NICU) admission, and increased maternal satisfaction. The use of prostaglandin is associated with an increased rate of diarrhoea and use of analgesia/anaesthesia. Compared with oxytocin, prostaglandin induction results in a lower rate of epidural use and internal fetal heart rate monitoring but a greater risk of chorioamnionitis, nausea, vomiting, more vaginal examinations, neonatal antibiotic therapy, NICU admission and neonatal infection. Women should be informed of the risks and benefits of each method of induction.Misoprostol is gaining increasing interest as an alternative induction agent. It appears to be an effective method of labour induction with term PROM. Further research is needed to identify the preferred dosage, route and interval of administration, and to assess uncommon maternal and neonatal outcomes.There has been limited research on the use of prostaglandins, including misoprostol, for induction of labour with a favourable cervix and intact membranes. Compared with intravenous oxytocin (with and without amniotomy), labour induction using vaginal prostaglandins in women with a favourable cervix (with and without PROM) results in a higher rate of vaginal delivery within 24 hours and increased maternal satisfaction. In women with a favourable cervix, artificial rupture of membranes followed by oral misoprostol has similar time to vaginal delivery compared with artificial rupture of membranes followed by oxytocin. Further research with prostaglandins, including misoprostol, is needed to evaluate other maternal and neonatal outcomes in women being induced with a favourable cervix.No form of prostaglandin induction in women with PROM or favourable cervix has proven clearly superior to oxytocin infusion.
