Objective cervical portio length measurements: consistency and efficacy of screening for a short cervix.
J Reprod Med
May 2007
San Diego Perinatal Center and Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women, San Diego, California, USA.
Objective: To determine the consistency of 4-quadrant cervical portio length measurements with an objective cervical measuring device and to identify patients who may benefit from transvaginal ultrasound.
Study Design: Prenatal patients (12-34 weeks) derwent 4-quadrant cervical portio measurements and transvaginal ultrasound by different, blinded examiners. Cervical portio quadrant measures were analyzed by correlation analysis, and the predictive ability of cervical portio length measurements to identify short cervices with transvaginal ultrasound was assessed.
