The ARRIVE was published in the New England Journal of Medicine on August 8, 2018 1. This study was a large unmasked multicenter trial conducted from March 2014 to August randomized 6,106 nulliparous women to either IOL or expectant management at full term. The trial was conducted at 41 facilities across the United States. This validated that eIOL at 39 weeks, in that patient population, had the ability to reduce cesarean sections and rates of hypertensive diseases of pregnancy. Since that time, elective IOLs have INCREASED at 39 weeks as some messaging was distorted implying that IOL was the BEST way to go over expectant management. Has other data since 2018 found the same thing? Or were the results of the ARRIVE trial an aberration? The ACOG has JUST RELEASED a new CPU which provides additional insights to this.
