Abstract
Aim of the present mixed prospective and retrospective study is to determine the prognostic significance of the pelvic score of Bishop for the continuity and the final outlet of induction of labor and to determine the optimal score in the beginning of the induction related with a successful outlet. Based on the given results the authors conclude that the pelvic score of Bishop has a good prognostic value for the continuity and the final outlet of induction of labor with a various values of the separate parameters. Pelvic score > or = 5 is related with a shorter and more successful inductions of labor.
