Summary statistics are presented as n (%), mean (SD) or median [IQR].
Removal time was missing for 1 patient in the D12 group and 1 patient in the P24 group.
Bishop score was not recorded at Visit 3 in 5, 5 and 11 patients in the D24, D12 and P24 groups, respectively.
One patient in the D24 group had Bishop score recorded as “<6” at baseline and excluded from the statistical summaries.
The subgroup of patients who required administration of an additional dose of prostaglandin gel (Prostin), after removal of Dilapan-S or Propess.
