Summary
This study will randomise low-risk women to compare the effectiveness of trans-cervical
balloon catheter for pre-induction cervical ripening for out-patient induction of labour with
current practice (Propess). Women will be randomised to two treatment groups. The
investigators wish to explore if such a trial is feasible, acceptable to women and what data
collection is required for a future trial. Since no data exist, the investigators propose a
study with approximately 60 women in each arm across two recruiting sites.
