What this Trial Is About
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the effectiveness of membrane stripping in cervical ripening compared to double balloon catheter induction. The study population consists of women undergoing labor induction. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is membrane stripping as effective as double balloon catheter induction in cervical ripening? 2. What is the influence of membrane stripping on the time required for cervical ripening, delivery duration, and maternal and fetal outcomes compared to balloon induction.
