Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of a silicone-double-balloon-catheter for cervical ripening and labor induction in women with unfavorable cervix (Bishop Score not greater than 6) compared to medical treatment using a dinoprostone slow-release-vaginal-insert.
