PAMG-1 detection by PartoSure is the single best predictor of imminent spontaneous delivery within 7 days compared to fFN and CL. In settings where CL is used as an initial screen, PartoSure has the greatest clinical utility in patients with CL between 15 and 35 mm. In situations where CL is not an initial screen, PartoSure is the most accurate test compared to fFN and CL.
A positive PartoSure TTD test in patients presenting with symptoms of preterm labor, intact membranes, and minimal cervical dilatation (≤3 cm) indicated spontaneous preterm delivery will occur within 7 days with a high degree of accuracy. A negative result indicated that spontaneous preterm delivery within 14 days is highly unlikely.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
