NCT ID NCT07696858

First seen Jul 10, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This study looks at 100 pregnant women with a single baby who are experiencing preterm labor between 24 and 34 weeks. Researchers aim to find which factors help predict whether a short course of tocolysis (medication to delay labor) can postpone delivery by at least 48 hours. The goal is to better understand who is most likely to benefit from this treatment.
