ObjectiveTo determine whether different modes of induction can impact the success rate and perinatal morbidity of women undergoing trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC).Study DesignRetrospective review of the electronic database created by the Consortium of Safe Labor, reflecting labor and delivery information from 12 clinical centers (19 hospitals) from 2002-2008.
