[Risk factors and prognosis in premature labor]. / Faktory riska i prognozirovanie prezhdevremennykh rodov.

In order to find a relationship between risk factors and the incidence of premature delivery, 3014 delivery histories, including 323 protocols of premature deliveries, have been surveyed. Study results depicted the magnitude of risk associated with determinants like maternal growth, deficient body weight, occupation, parity, a history of reproductive dysfunction. Sixteen percent of women with term and 35% with preterm deliveries were a high-risk population. The incidence of premature delivery in it was 24%, suggesting an adequate predictive value of the risk scoring system.
