New screening strategy aims to cut preterm births by half
NCT ID NCT07415070
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new way to prevent preterm birth by first giving pregnant women a simple risk score. Those at high risk then get a special ultrasound to check the cervix, followed by proven treatments if needed. Researchers will compare this approach to standard care in 1,000 women to see if it lowers the number of babies born too early.
