Induction of labor and ivf: does arrive apply?

There are increased intrapartum risks associated with in vitro fertilization (IVF), as well as increased likelihood of induction of labor with assisted reproduction (ART) pregnancies due to medical complications (1). Previous studies have also shown a higher rate of Cesarean section in ART pregnancies (1). Yet, IOL is associated with decreased rates of Cesarean section at term (2). In IVF pregnancies, obstetric outcomes and mode of delivery from IOL compared to spontaneous labor has yet to be established.
