Bishop's score Wikipedia

Bishop's score is a pre-labor scoring system to assist in predicting whether an induction of labor may be successful. The total score is achieved by assessing five components: cervical dilatation, cervical effacement, cervical consistency, cervical position, and fetal station. Each is given a score of 0-3 and the highest possible score is 13.
