Abstract To compare the effect of uterine double balloon catheter and oxytocin for promoting cervical ripening during induced labor. Methods: The clinical data of 220 of full-term pregnant women with head position of fetus from May 2018 to June 2019 were collected and divided into observation group (110 cases) and control group (110 cases) according to the random number table. The women in the observation group were given double balloon catheter for promoting cervical ripening during induced labor, and the women in the control group were given oxytocin for promoting cervical ripening during induced labor. The effective rate of cervical ripening, the maternal delivery situation, the uterine rupture rate, and the neonatal condition of the women were compared between the two groups. And the incidence of adverse reactions of the women in the two groups was counted. Results: The effective rate of promoting cervical maturation (98.2%) of the women in the observation group was significant higher than that (83.6%) of the women in the control group. The time of labor, the durations of the first, the second and the third stage of labor, and the total stage of labor time of the women in the observation group were significant shorter than those of the women in the control group. The postpartum blood loss volume of the women in the observation group was significant less than that of the women in the control group. The rate of natural delivery (92.7%) of the women in the observation group was significant higher than that (72.7%) of the women in the control group (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of maternal uterine rupture (1.8% vs.0%), neonatal weight, Apgar score at 5 min, and the adverse reactions rate (18.2% vs.16.4%) between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: The effect of uterine double balloon catheter for promoting cervical ripening of the pregnant women during induced labor is better than that of oxytocin, which has better effective rate of induced labor and natural delivery rate, has less postpartum hemorrhage rate, shorter of the labor process and induced labor time, and does not increase adverse reactions with good safety.
