Bed Rest for Short Cervix During Pregnancy
Part of Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether bed rest helps prevent early labor in pregnant women who have a shorter-than-normal cervix (the opening of the uterus). Researchers want to see if staying in bed can reduce complications and help babies stay in the womb longer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 5 and 7.5 months pregnant (gestational age 20 to 33 weeks and 6 days)
- Your cervix is shorter than normal: less than 25 mm if carrying one baby, or less than 30 mm if carrying multiples
- You are 18 years of age or older
- You can read and understand either Danish or English
- You are carrying either a single baby or multiple babies (twins, triplets, etc.)

This study tests whether a physical activity program can help pregnant women who are hospitalized on bed rest due to high-risk pregnancy. It aims to improve their well-being and possibly their pregnancy outcomes.
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 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 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.
This trial tests if placing a stitch in the cervix (cerclage) between 24 and 27 weeks of pregnancy can help prevent preterm birth in women whose cervix is short. It may be an option for those who find out late in pregnancy that they are at risk.
