To compare propranolol and misoprostol versus misoprostol alone for induction of labour in primigravidas

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Candidates will be randomized into 2 groups according to a computer generated sequence. Each candidate will be assigned an opaque sealed envelope containing a paper with her group on it. Both the patient and doctor on duty will be blinded to which group the patient was assigned to.

  • Study procedure:
  1. Written informed consent will be obtained from all participants prior to the study.

  2. Full history taking.

  3. General examination.

Patients will be subjected to the following:
  • Patients attending labour room for induction of labour will be divided into two groups.

  • Both groups, women are induced with Tab misoprostol 25μg applied to posterior vaginal fornix under aseptic precaution and every 6 hours for a maximum of 4 doses.

  • In group 1, after induction is started with misoprostol placement, 30 minutes will pass before administration of oral Propanolol 20mg

  • In group 2, after induction is started with misoprostol placement, 30 minutes will pass before administration of oral placebo in the form of sugary tablets.

  • After induction, women will be monitored for fetal and maternal wellbeing and progress of labour.
