Nomogram predicting cesarean delivery undergoing induction of labor among high-risk nulliparous women at term: a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Our aim was to create and validate a nomogram predicting cesarean delivery after induction of labor among nulliparous women at term.

Methods

Data were obtained from medical records from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital. Nulliparous women with singleton pregnancies undergoing induction of labor at term were involved. A total of 2950 patients from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2015 were served as derivation cohort. A nomogram was constructed by multivariate logistic regression using maternal, fetal and pregnancy characteristics. The predictive accuracy and discriminative ability of the nomogram were internal validated by 1000-bootstrap resampling, followed by external validation of a new dataset from Jan. 2016 to Dec. 2016.

Results

Logistic regression revealed nine predictors
