Predicting early birth risk with cervical length checks
Treatments studied
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a way to predict early labor risk using a scoring system and an ultrasound measurement of the cervix. If you are at higher risk, you may get extra monitoring and care to help reduce the chance of delivering too early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be registered at a participating community health service center.
- You must be pregnant with only one baby.
- You must not have had a previous cervical cerclage (a stitch to support the cervix).
- You must be willing to sign a consent form to join the study.

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.
This study looks at the best time to measure the length of the cervix during a standard anatomy ultrasound. A shorter cervix can be a sign of early labor risk, so finding out the right moment to check may help improve care.
This study tests a new device that measures how stiff the cervix is in women who may be going into labor early. The goal is to see if this measurement can help tell which women are truly at risk for preterm birth.
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 study tests whether placing a “cervix stitch” (cerclage) can reduce the risk of very early birth in twin pregnancies. It is for people whose cervix is shorter than expected or has started to open before 24 weeks.
This study tests a personalized care program to help reduce stress during pregnancy and prevent early birth. It is for pregnant women at higher risk of preterm birth and aims to improve health for both mother and baby.
