Benefits of Premaquick Combined Detection of IL-6/Total IGFBP-1/Native IGFBP-1 to Predict Preterm Delivery.

We conducted a prospective double-blind study to compare two vaginal diagnostic methods in singleton pregnancies with threatened preterm labor (TPL) at the University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand (France) from August 2018 to December 2020. Our main objective was to compare the diagnostic capacity at admission, in terms of positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV), of Premaquick (combined detection of IL-6/total IGFBP-1/native IGFBP-1) and QuikCheck fFN™ (fetal fibronectin) for delivery within 7 days in cases of TPL. We included 193 patients.

Factors of Non-Compliance with a Protocol for Oral Administration of Misoprostol (Angusta) 25 Micrograms to Induce Labor: An Observational Study.

We set out to identify factors of non-compliance with a protocol for the oral administration of misoprostol 25 µg (Angusta) every 2 h (up to eight tablets), for the induction of labor (IOL). We conducted a retrospective study on IOL at term, on singleton pregnancies from 2019 to 2021, in a university hospital. The study included 195 patients, comprising 144 compliant protocols.
