Feb 7, 2021 · The main results of this study were: (1) At 24 weeks’ gestation, only 10% of women had CL < 26 mm; (2) The risk of PTB was inversely related to CL; (3) a CL < 26 mm at 24 weeks had a better predictive value compared to CL < 26 mm at 28 weeks (RR 6.1 vs. 5.3) for predicting PTB < 35 weeks.
Sep 3, 2021 · The strongest predictor of preterm birth is a history of preterm birth. Cervical length monitoring from 16 to 24 weeks has been demonstrated be effective when the finding of a short cervix is treated vaginal progesterone or a stitch in the cervix called a cerclage, depending on how short the cervix is on ultrasound measurement.

What are the recommendations for predicting spontaneous preterm birth (PTB)?
PTB is difficult to predict. Prediction means to identify women at risk for preterm delivery within relatively short time interval (usually within 48 hours, 7–14 days). A test with high negative predictive value and a high positive predictive value would offer the best result.

Results: Gestation was by far the most powerful predictor of survival to term, and as few as 5 extra days can double the chance of survival. Weight for gestation also had a powerful but non-linear effect on survival, with weight between the median and 85th centile predicting the highest survival.
