Cornelissen, Lisa G. H. published the artcileThe diagnostic value of fetal fibronectin testing in clinical practice, Product Details of C17H18N2O6, the main research area is fetal fibronectin testing diagnostic value; cervical length; cervical length measurement; fetal fibronectin; preterm delivery.
To evaluate the clin. management to withhold treatment for preterm labor in symptomatic women with an intermediate cervical length and neg. fetal fibronectin (fFN) testing. A retrospective cohort study was performed in a tertiary care teaching hospital in the Netherlands. Pregnant women with a gestational age between 23+5 to 34+0 weeks, with the presence of regular uterine contractions accompanied by a cervical length between 15 and 30 mm and intact membranes, who underwent fFN testing were included to obtain the diagnostic value of fFN testing for preterm delivery within 7 days. Fetal fibronectin testing has an extremely high neg. predictive value (100%) and sensitivity (100%) for delivery within 7 days, in singleton and multiple pregnancies. However, specificity (64%) and pos. predictive value (10%) of fFN testing in singleton pregnancies are low. Blood present on the fFN sample does not affect the reliability of the fFN test; the neg. predictive value remains 100%. Women with symptoms of early preterm labor, intact membranes, a cervical length between 15 and 30 mm and neg. fFN testing do not deliver within 7 days. Administration of corticosteroids and tocolytics can safely be withhold. Furthermore, blood on the fFN sample does not change the reliability of the fFN test.
