Sharing our paper addressing challenges of ARRIVE trial translation into practice. Labor induction doesn’t always reduce caesarean birth risk or improve outcomes for term pregnancies michiganmedicine.org/health-… @MichiganACNM @ACNMmidwives @BirthPlaceLab @hannahdahlen @sheena_byrom
Labor induction doesn’t always reduce caesarean birth risk or improve outcomes for term pregnancies

Labor induction doesn’t always reduce caesarean birth risk or improve outcomes for term pregnancies

A new study suggests that inducing labor at 39 weeks for low-risk pregnancies may not reduce the risk of C-sections or improve outcomes.

#Texans4HCAccess #ACNM Lack of access to nurse-midwives and other APRNs due to expensive contracts leads to higher c-sections, preterm births, and lower breastfeeding rates. Support #HealTexansAct for the future of Texas.
