Summary

This small pilot study aimed to see if acupuncture could help reduce the need for medical procedures to start labor in low-risk pregnant women. It compared real acupuncture to a simulated treatment to test the idea and plan for a larger future study. The trial was terminated early after enrolling only 8 participants.
