Abstract

Labor induction is an elementary procedure in obstetrics that is applied in an important group of patients to successfully interrupt pregnancy due to maternal and perinatal risks.  In this work, a new method that allows to approach with effectiveness the oxytocin response is briefly exposed, after the use of Misofar® in facilitator function to induce labor, shortening the latency in early break of membranes and conditioning the cervical structures in pregnant women with pre-eclampsia to obtain a better response. This new tool is at medical community disposal for the maternal and perinatal benefit.
