Double stitch may keep babies safer: new study on weak cervix
NCT ID NCT05268640
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether placing two stitches instead of one around the cervix during an emergency can help women with a weak cervix carry their pregnancy longer. The trial included 81 women between 16 and 25 weeks of pregnancy whose membranes were bulging out. The goal was to see if the double stitch reduces the number of births before 34 weeks compared to the standard single stitch.
