简要总结
Multicentre study; observational, longitudinal prospective, case-control
详细描述
This is a new protocol to evaluate the mode of birth in women with a low-lying placenta. In particular, we intend to propose a vaginal birth in women having a low-lying placenta with a distance between the inferior placental edge and the internal cervical os, called internal-os-distance (IOD) of > 5 mm, as assessed in the late III trimester using transvaginal sonography.
Duration of the study:
- Duration of the study: 54 months
- Duration of enrollment: 42 months
- Duration of follow-up completion of enrolled cases: 6 months
- Duration of data analysis: 6 months
Study Design:
During the II trimester scan, all women presenting a placenta located in the lower uterine segment will undergo evaluation by Transvaginal Sonography (TVS).

入选标准
- •Minimum age of 18
- •Women with placenta previa or low-lying placenta confirmed by TVS at 19-23 6/7 weeks of gestation.
- •Women attending Maternity Triage with vaginal bleeding at < 32 weeks of gestation, with a diagnosis of placenta previa or low-lying placenta and not requiring an emergency delivery.
- •Women with a normally located placenta at the II trimester ultrasound scan, at 19-23 6/7 week of gestation (control group)
- •Single pregnancy
- •Signature of the informed consent to participate in the study
- •Note: Women of the "control group" will be recruited in a 1:3 ratio. After the inclusion of 1 case, 3 women with a normally located placenta will be recruited, according to the parity of the woman representing the case (e.g.: 1 CASE= nulliparous woman, 3 CONTROLS= 3 nulliparous women).
排除标准
- •Suspected or confirmed invasive placentation (i.e., placenta accreta)
- •Vaginal bleeding requiring emergency delivery
- •Inability to meet the conditions set out in the study protocol
