Subject: [ozmidwifery] on the subject of induction
-snip-
Is the "failed induction-requiring C/s" rate really around 50%?

It certainly isn't where I work! In our tertiary level hospital we have
about 100 IOL per month, of them fewer than 5 would be 'failed inductions.'
We have a horrendously high CS rate of about 30%, that includes elective,
emergency, prems, high risk, the lot. Our last stats from, I think 2003,
showed IOLs resulting in CS at something like 32%
