Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study Clinical TrialSubcutaneous tissue reapproximation, alone or in combination with drain, in obese women undergoing cesarean delivery.
To compare the efficacy of subcutaneous suture reapproximation alone with suture plus subcutaneous drain for the prevention of wound complications in obese women undergoing cesarean delivery. ⋯ The additional use of a subcutaneous drain along with a standard subcutaneous suture reapproximation technique is not effective for the prevention of wound complications in obese women undergoing cesarean delivery.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialOutpatient misoprostol compared with dinoprostone gel for preinduction cervical ripening: a randomized controlled trial.
To determine whether a single outpatient dose of intravaginal misoprostol (versus intracervical dinoprostone gel) reduces the oxytocin use for induction. Despite the numerous trials examining misoprostol for induction, the efficacy of a single outpatient dose of misoprostol followed by oxytocin induction is unknown. ⋯ A single dose of misoprostol administered in the outpatient setting significantly decreases oxytocin use, largely due to labor within the ripening period.
