Clinical significance of early (< 20 weeks) vs. late (20–24 weeks) detection of sonographic short cervix in asymptomatic women in the mid‐trimester

Abstract: Objective The aim of this study was to determine whether the risk of early spontaneous preterm delivery (PTD)

“…To accomplish these goals, women were divided into three groups based on their gestational age at amniocentesis with the two cutoff points representing tertiles of the distribution: 16 5/7 to 22 1/7, 22 2/7 to 26 1/7, and 26 2/7 to 31 5/7 weeks of gestation. In addition to creating equal-sized subgroups of patients, this subclassification of samples is based on (i) previous observations that the populations of patients diagnosed with a short cervix are different, depending upon whether the diagnosis is made earlier as opposed to later in gestation 81 and also (ii) the observation that pro-inflammatory protein concentrations may vary with gestational age at amniocentesis. 127 …”

“…62,81,82 Sterile intra-amniotic inflammation appears to be more common than MIAC (10% vs 2.2%, respectively) and is associated with an increased risk of spontaneous preterm delivery <34 weeks of gestation. 82 The presence of intra-amniotic inflammation (both microbial and sterile) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes 35,8391 in patients presenting with preterm labor and intact membranes, 92–108 preterm pre-labor rupture of the membranes (PPROM), 109114 a sonographic short cervix, 60,62,82,115 and cervical insufficiency.…”

“…Dennoch erscheint eine Vorverlagerung und Implementation im Rahmen eines erweiterten Erst-Trimester-Screenings sinnvoll: Frauen mit hohem Risiko und Zervixverkürzung bereits im 1. Trimenon zeigen besonders schwere klinische Verläufe [13].…”

“…Die asymptomatische Zervixverkür-zung ist ein bekannter Risikofaktor für eine Frühgeburt im Niedrigrisiko-sowie Hochrisikokollektiv [29,30,31]. Je kürzer die sonographisch gemessene Zervix ist, desto höher ist das Risiko für eine spontane Frühgeburt [32,33,34,35].…”
