Popis: Introduction. Induction of labor is one of the most frequent procedures in modern obstetrics, which reduces the frequency of cesarean section and improves pregnancy outcomes. However, the effectiveness and safety of labor induction methods vary. Currently, the vaginal therapeutic system (SVT) with dinoprostone is certified for use for childbirth in Russia. Aim. To conduct a review of the literature data and a pilot study of the effectiveness and safety of the vaginal therapeutic system with dinoprostone for induction of labor. Materials and methods. A review of the literature for 2001–2022 devoted to the use of vaginal systems with gradual release of prostaglandin for induction of labor was conducted. Additionally, a prospective observational study of the effectiveness and safety of the dinoprostone system was conducted in 18 pregnant women. The evaluation criteria were: the frequency of labor, the degree of maturation of the cervix on the Bishop scale, as well as the frequency of vaginal delivery. Results. Literature data indicate that SVT with dinoprostone has comparable efficacy with other methods of pre-induction / induction of labor. The system with dinoprostone has a lower frequency of the side effect of “tachysystole” than the system with misoprostol. Compared with mechanical methods, SVT is assotiated with a lower frequency of oxytocin use. The use of SVT with dinoprostone showed an efficiency of 77.8% (in terms of the of labor start or cervical ripening). No side effects requiring termination of labor induction were registered in our study. Conclusions. Thus, vaginal insertion with prostaglandin E2 – dinoprostone is an effective and safe method of pre-induction of labor. Taking into account the small sample size in our work, it is of interest to continue research in order to obtain more complete data and in comparison with other methods.
