BishopScore.com provides healthcare professionals with a reliable, easy-to-use tool for calculating the Bishop Score, a critical metric in obstetric assessment. Developed by Dr. Edward Bishop in 1964, this scoring system remains the gold standard for evaluating cervical readiness for labor induction.

What We Offer

Our calculator helps clinicians assess five key components:

Cervical dilation
Cervical effacement
Cervical consistency
Cervical position
Fetal station

Each component is carefully weighted according to the original Bishop Score criteria, providing a total score that helps guide clinical decision-making about labor induction.

Intended Use

This calculator is designed for use by:

Obstetricians
Midwives
Labor and delivery nurses
Other qualified healthcare professionals

Important Notice

While our calculator provides accurate scoring based on input data, it should be used as one of many clinical tools in the assessment of labor readiness. Clinical decisions should always be made by qualified healthcare providers considering the full context of each patient's situation.

About the Bishop Score

The Bishop Score has been the leading pre-labor scoring system for over 50 years, helping clinicians predict:

Likelihood of spontaneous labor onset
Probability of successful induction
Need for cervical ripening

A total score of ≤5 suggests labor is unlikely to start spontaneously, while a score of ≥9 indicates a high likelihood of spontaneous labor onset. Scores between 6-8 require additional clinical consideration.
