The participants had one previous CD and a cervical dilatation of 2 to 6 cm, had inadequate uterine contractions, defined as less than 3 per 10 minutes, and were candidates for labor augmentation. They were randomized for augmentation by breast stimulation using a breast pump, or by intravenous low-dose oxytocin starting at 0.5 to 2 milliunits/min and increasing incrementally by 1 to 2 milliunits/min every 15 to 40 minutes. An intrauterine pressure catheter was inserted. Both augmentation treatments were continued for a maximum of 12 hours. If active labor did not occur within 12 hours, the intervention was deemed a failure. An intention-to-treat analysis was performed. The co-primary outcomes were the time from augmentation to delivery, and uterine contraction intensity as measured by Montevideo units (MVU). Secondary outcomes included intervention failure, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, vaginal delivery after cesarean section, uterine rupture, infectious outcomes, postpartum hemorrhage, and maternal hospitalization length. The neonatal outcomes included: Apgar score at 5 minutes, umbilical cord pH&lt;7.1, neonatal intensive care unit admission, asphyxia, and perinatal death.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The breast stimulation and the intravenous oxytocin groups included 33 and 34 patients, respectively. The participants’ demographic and obstetric characteristics were similar. The median time from augmentation to delivery was longer in the breast stimulation than the oxytocin group: 10.9 hours (total range 1.5–63.2) vs 5.1 hours (0.8–30), &lt;em&gt;P&lt;/em&gt;&lt;.001.
