But because this type of induction is precipitated by a non-medially indicated or scientifically sup- ported intervention that created risk that did Pitocin
not previously exist, and would not have branes not been artificially ruptured, it would be more accurate to classify these as ‘iatrogenic’ (caused by the doctor) not ~bleeding in area surrounding spinal cord ‘medical’. So, for all intents and purposes, they are ‘elective’ because they began with an elective procedure and not for the health ~cardiac arrhythmias (abnormal heart rate) agents for inducing labor are Pitocin and for elective inductions. Both carry substan- THINK ‘BRAIN’:
