NCT ID NCT07043088
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study looks at whether doing a membrane sweep several times near the end of pregnancy helps labor start naturally before 41 weeks and 3 days. About 1,500 pregnant women will either get no sweeps or up to three sweeps a few days apart. The goal is to see if this simple procedure reduces the need for medical induction.
