Summary

This study tested whether giving two medications (mifepristone and misoprostol) at the same time works better than misoprostol alone for inducing labor in pregnancies that cannot survive (14-28 weeks). 30 women participated. The goal was to see if the combination shortens delivery time, which could lower infection risks for the mother.
