Abstract
Objective: To describe obstetric outcomes associated with the use of dinoprostone and its effectiveness in cervical ripening in pregnant women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy compared to normotensive pregnant women.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary-level hospital in Medellín, Colombia (March 2020 - October 2024). The study included pregnant women with singleton pregnancies, beyond 30 weeks of gestation, with a live fetus in cephalic presentation, and undergoing cervical ripening with dinoprostone vaginal insert. Women were excluded if they had used other ripening methods, had a favorable cervix at admission, or had an unclassified hypertensive disorder. Primary outcomes included successful cervical ripening, vaginal delivery, time to favorable Bishop score and to delivery, and indications for cesarean section. Adverse events considered were placental abruption, non-reassuring fetal status, tachysystole, and worsening of hypertensive condition.
Results: A total of 400 patients were included (200 with hypertensive disorders, of whom 100 had severe preeclampsia). The success rate of cervical ripening was similar between patients with hypertensive disorders and healthy women (crude RR: 0.95, 95% CI: 0.88-1.03; adjusted RR for gestational age, maternal age, and parity 0.96, 95% CI: 0.88-1.04). The vaginal delivery rate was also similar (44% vs. 55%, p= 0.16). The median time to favorable Bishop score and to delivery was comparable between normotensive and hypertensive groups, even in severe cases. Cesarean delivery was mainly due to failed ripening and medical decision. Adverse events, except for tachysystole, were more frequent in the hypertensive group but did not reach statistical significance.
Conclusion: Dinoprostone is effective in hypertensive pregnant women, including those receiving magnesium sulfate, with no significant differences compared to normotensive women.
