Bed rest for short cervix under scrutiny: could normal activity be better?
NCT ID NCT07577388
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether recommending bed rest to pregnant women with a short cervix actually helps prevent preterm birth. Researchers will compare women who are told to rest with those who continue normal daily activities. The goal is to see if avoiding bed rest is just as safe and may reduce side effects like depression and bone loss.

Active substance
bed rest (activity restriction) vs. normal activity
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that avoiding bed rest is safe and may reduce depression and bone loss in pregnant women with a short cervix.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less certain. It only includes women in Denmark, so findings may not apply elsewhere.
