The vigilance of the fetus was realized by electronic monitorization, sonographic examination and amnioscopy 55.1% of patients begin labor spontaneously 44.9% were interrupted. The principals causes of interruption were pelvic score of bishop > 7 points and condition that suggest fetal injury. In 31.6% of patients a cesarean section was made. Neonatal morbidity was a 19.4% and we don't have mortality.
