Rest in bed for a short cervix to prevent early birth
Part of Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if bed rest can help prevent early birth in pregnant women who have a short cervix (the lower part of the womb). If you have a short cervix, this might help you carry your baby longer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 33 weeks pregnant.
- You have a short cervix: less than 25 mm if carrying one baby, or less than 30 mm if carrying twins or more.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You can read and understand Danish or English.

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.
This study looks at whether gentle physical activity can help pregnant women who are on bed rest in the hospital. It aims to see if movement is safe and beneficial for both the mother and baby.
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 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 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.
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.
