Cervical length by ultrasound as a predictor of preterm labour
Background: Objective of current study was to evaluate cervical length by transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasonography at 14-24 weeks of gestation in asymptomatic women for predicting women at risk of preterm delivery and to find out the one method which is more accurate of the two. Methods: Fifty one women were enrolled in this prospective study. Women with cervical incompetence, multiple g...

BACKGROUND To determine whether preterm delivery is more effectively predicted by sonographic cervical length measurement using fixed cut-off or gestational age-specific percentiles. METHODS One hundred and eight patients hospitalized for suspected preterm labor (PTL) were studied prospectively between the 20th and the 33rd week of gestation. RESULTS Cervical length below 15 mm, 25 mm and t...
متن کاملUltrasound Measurement of Cervical Length as Predictor of Threatened Preterm Birth: a Predictive Model
INTRODUCTION The incidence of preterm delivery has been increasing even in developed countries and remains a serious problem for fetuses and neonates. Although many predictors for preterm delivery have been proposed, complete prediction and prevention have not yet been established. AIMS To examine the potential association between sonographic measurement of cervical length and threatened pret...
متن کاملCervical Length Measured by Transvaginal Ultrasonography and Cervicovaginal Infection as Predictor of Preterm Birth Risk
INTRODUCTION The study shows possibilities of transvaginal sonographic measurement of the cervix in prediction of premature birth risk. GOALS The aim of the study was to follow up the cervical length in the pregnant from 16(th) to 37(th) week, as well as to do a microbiological analysis of the vaginal and cervical flora and to identify relation between the cervical shortening and microbiologi...
متن کاملSonographic measurement of cervical length as a predictor of preterm delivery: a systematic review.
AIM To evaluate if transvaginal cervical length measurement in the second-trimester scan is an effective screening test for preterm delivery. METHODS We performed a search in Medline and, for each selected article, information was extracted regarding the performance of the test in terms of sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative likelihood ratios, in low-risk, high-risk, and multiple...
