Summary

This trial seeks to create a visual aid tool that meets the needs of pregnant women, to help them feel more informed and satisfied with induction methods.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking pregnant women scheduled for or admitted to labor induction, without major fetal anomalies, chromosomal issues, prior cesarean sections, already started inductions, terminations via induction, or fetal growth restrictions with doppler abnormalities.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new visual aid tool designed to educate about labor induction. It's based on input from historically marginalized pregnant women and aims to see if it improves their knowledge, satisfaction, and trust in doctors regarding induction methods.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves educational material rather than medication or medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects expected from the visual aid itself.
