WASHINGTON (Reuters) – US researchers have developed a new blood test to predict the risk of premature birth in the first trimester of pregnancy, US researchers said.
The test was developed by researchers at Brigham Women's Hospital in Boston and was published in the latest issue of the American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology.
It is difficult to predict premature birth in the first trimester, and these births can occur for a number of reasons, including preterm labor, early rupture of the placental membrane and pre-eclampsia, and prenatal mothers are at greater risk .
