New Nomogram Enhances Preterm Birth Risk Assessment – AJOG MFM
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology MFM – AJOG MFM shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Preterm Birth
A newly developed and externally validated multivariable nomogram helps estimate individualized, time-dependent risk in singleton pregnancies with cervical length ≤25 mm — moving beyond cervical length alone.
Key predictors
- Prior preterm birth
- Cervical length
- Gestational age at diagnosis
Strong performance across training and external validation cohorts
- Good discrimination (AUC up to 0.77)
- Excellent calibration
- Demonstrated clinical utility across risk thresholds
Why it matters
This simple, practical tool supports personalized counseling and risk stratification — helping clinicians tailor management for patients at highest risk.
