Vaginal delivery, a favorable cervix after 24 h, the time from device insertion to delivery, and maternal morbidity did not significantly differ between the CRB and the dinoprostone vaginal insert for cervical ripening in obese women at term. Nevertheless, neonatal morbidity was significantly associated with the dinoprostone vaginal insert, compared with the CRB, among obese women who required cervical ripening at term.
