Transvaginal cervical length measurement for prediction of preterm birth in women with threatened preterm labor: a meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVES To integrate data on the performance of cervical length measurement for the prediction of preterm birth in symptomatic women. METHODS MEDLINE, SCOPUS and manual searches for studies with transvaginal ultrasound measurement of the cervical length in symptomatic women were carried out. Random effects models were used for data integration, and pooled test estimates of sensitivity, spe...
متن کاملSelective use of sonographic cervical length measurement for predicting imminent preterm delivery in women with preterm labor and intact membranes.
OBJECTIVES To determine, in a population of women with preterm labor and intact membranes, whether ultrasound cervical length measurement performed only in patients selected according to the Bishop score predicts imminent preterm delivery better than does systematic cervical length measurement in the entire population. METHODS The Bishop score and sonographic cervical length were recorded pro...
متن کاملPredictive value of cervical length in women with twin pregnancy presenting with threatened preterm labor.
OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy and determine the optimal threshold of sonographic cervical length (CL) for the prediction of preterm delivery (PTD) in women with twin pregnancies presenting with threatened preterm labor (PTL). METHODS This was a retrospective study of women with twin pregnancies who presented with threatened PTL and underwent sonographic measurement of CL in a tertiary cent...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Vaginal Microorganisms in Pregnant Women with Preterm Labor and Preterm Birth
BACKGROUND To investigate the risk factors for vaginal infections and antimicrobial susceptibilities of vaginal microorganisms among women who experienced preterm birth (PTB), we compared the prevalence of vaginal microorganisms between women who experienced preterm labor (PTL) without preterm delivery and spontaneous PTB. METHODS Vaginal swab specimens from 126 pregnant women who experienced...
متن کاملUltrasound assessment of cervical length in threatened preterm labor.
OBJECTIVE More than 70% of women presenting with threatened preterm labor do not progress to active labor and delivery. The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that in women with threatened preterm labor, sonographic measurement of cervical length helps distinguish between true and false labor. METHODS We examined 216 women with singleton pregnancies presenting with regular an...
