RESUMO
A prematuridade representa um dos maiores desafios da Obstetrícia moderna, sendo a principal causa de morbimortalidade neonatal. Apesar dos avanços nas últimas décadas, sua incidência permanece inalterada no Brasil. Além disso, o diagnóstico do trabalho de parto prematuro pode, muitas vezes, ser um desafio nem todas as pacientes com contrações antes de 37 semanas irão evoluir para um parto prematuro. A fim de tornar esse diagnóstico mais preciso e elucidar para os obstetras quais são as pacientes que realmente apresentam um risco maior para prematuridade, muitos autores têm pesquisado marcadores capazes de predizer tal risco. Com o objetivo de diminuir a incidência dos partos prematuros, atualmente buscam-se estratégias capazes de prevenir o parto prematuro. A presente revisão discute os principais preditores de risco e métodos de prevenção
ABSTRACT
The prematurity represents one of the major challenges in modern Obstetrics, and it is the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Despite technological advances in the past decades, the rate of preterm birth remains the same in Brazil. Moreover, the diagnosis of preterm labor can often be a challenge not all patients with contractions before 37 weeks go on to a premature delivery. To make this a more precise diagnosis for obstetricians and to really elucidate which patients have higher risk for prematurity, many authors have investigated markers that could predict such risk. In order to reduce the incidence of preterm delivery, obstetricians are now looking for strategies to prevent preterm birth. This review discusses the most important predictors of risk and the main methods of prevention
