Two stitches vs one: new hope to stop premature birth?

NCT ID NCT05268640

Summary

This study tested if placing two surgical stitches in the cervix is better than one at preventing very early birth in women with a weak cervix. It involved 81 pregnant women whose cervix was opening too soon. Researchers randomly assigned women to receive either the standard single stitch or a new two-stitch method to see which helped pregnancies last longer.
