Development of Risk Scoring Scale Tool for Prediction of Preterm Birth.

Background: Prediction of preterm births in the early stage during pregnancy may reduce prevalence of preterm births by appropriate interventions.

Aims/objective: The aim of the study is to develop an antenatal risk scoring system/scale for prediction of preterm births.

Subjects And Methods: From a cohort of 1876 and subset of 380 pregnant women attending Krishna Hospital Karad, Maharashtra, routine antenatal and in-depth information on diet, occupation, and the rest were collected and analyzed using SPSS version 16.
