Transvaginal sonographic measurement of cervical length and the risk of spontaneous preterm birth
Transvaginal sonographic measurement of cervical length, at 20 weeks of gestation, is very useful to predict spontaneous preterm birth. A large number of studies have been performed in the attempt to detect the spontaneous preterm birth on the basis of biological, biochemical and ultrasound parameters. Transvaginal Sonography is a good tool to evaluate the cervix. This study aims to evaluate th...
متن کاملSecond-trimester cervical length as risk indicator for Cesarean delivery in women with twin pregnancy.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether second-trimester cervical length (CL) in women with a twin pregnancy is associated with the risk of emergency Cesarean section. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of two randomized trials conducted in 57 hospitals in The Netherlands. We assessed the univariable association between risk indicators, including second-trimester CL in quartiles, and emergency Cesa...
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...
متن کاملMaternal Characteristics, Short Mid-Trimester Cervical Length, and Preterm Delivery
We aimed to determine the maternal characteristics (demographics, an obstetric history, and prior cervical excisional procedure) associated with a short mid-trimester cervical length (CL, defined as a CL of ≤ 25 mm) and whether having a short cervix explains the association between these maternal characteristics and spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD, defined as a delivery before 34 weeks). Thi...
متن کاملSecond trimester cervical length measurement for prediction spontaneous preterm birth in an unselected risk population
OBJECTIVE To assess the predictive capacity of cervical length (CL) measurement underwent during the second trimester ultrasound for prediction preterm birth <32, 34, and 37 weeks of gestation in an unselected risk population. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed with 751 singleton pregnancies between 20 and 24+6 weeks of gestation. The CL measurement (mm) using the transvaginal...
