Tracking ways to prevent preterm birth
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at different care pathways to help lower the risk of preterm birth (birth too early). It will follow pregnant people with a singleton pregnancy to see which approaches may work best for preventing early delivery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- Your pregnancy involves one baby (not twins or more).
- You have not used vaginal progesterone or progesterone shots in the last 4 weeks.
- You do not have certain serious health problems (like congestive heart failure, chronic kidney failure, or uncontrolled diabetes).
- Your baby does not have a major birth defect or known chromosome condition.
- Your uterus does not have a major shape difference (like septated, unicornuate, or double uterus), and you can complete study visits.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a risk scoring system for preterm birth can help guide cervical length screening and reduce early deliveries. If you are a pregnant woman with one baby and no history of cervical cerclage, you may be able to join.
This study tests if personalized stress-reduction care during pregnancy can lower the risk of preterm birth, especially for those at higher risk. It is for people with a singleton pregnancy between 8 and nearly 20 weeks who receive care at UNC Chapel Hill.
This study uses a vaginal ultrasound to measure cervical length in people who previously had a spontaneous preterm birth. It aims to understand who may be at higher risk, so screening and next steps can be better planned in future pregnancies.
This trial tests whether adding a cervical stitch (cerclage) to progesterone treatment helps prevent early birth better than progesterone alone in women with a short cervix.
This trial tests whether taking progesterone for longer during an IVF pregnancy can help lower the risk of preterm birth (birth too early). It is for people who are pregnant from a fresh embryo transfer of a single embryo.
This study tests whether reducing the use of bed rest or activity limits can help prevent preterm birth. It looks at whether pregnant individuals at high risk for early delivery can safely move more without harming their pregnancy.
