Low-Dose Versus High-Dose Oxytocin Dosing for Induction and Augmentation of Labor: A Randomized Control Trial
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Oxytocin (Low dose) and Oxytocin (High dose) for Labor Long. Completed, enrolled 170 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare oxytocin infusion rates for induction and augmentation of labor in nulliparous women. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect length of induction to delivery interval? * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect mode of delivery? * Does a high dose oxytocin infusion protocol affect maternal and neonatal outcomes? Participants will be randomized to either low- or high-dose oxytocin groups: * The low dose group will receive an infusion to start at 2 milli-units/min and will be increased by 2 milli-units/min every 20 minutes. The maximum rate of infusion is 40 milli-units/min. * The high dose group will receive an infusion to start at 6 milli-units/min and will be increased by 6 milli-units/min every 20 minutes. Maximum rate of infusion is 40 milli-units/min.
