Summary

Preterm birth is a leading global cause of neonatal mortality despite of numerous advances and intensive research in perinatal medicine. Almost one million children die each year due to complications of preterm birth and in almost all countries with reliable data, preterm birth rates are increasing. Of the 14 million survivors per year, many face a lifetime of disability, including learning disabilities, visual and hearing impairments. Spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD) is often multi factorial event, precocious cervical softening, shortening and dilatation are a common denominator. The majority of preterm births happen spontaneously, though some are due to early induction of labor or cesarean birth, typically due to medical maternal of neonatal conditions.
