The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether cervical cerclage reduces the risk of preterm birth in patients with a short transvaginal ultrasound (TVU) cervical length (CL) ≤25mm between 24 0/7-26 6/7 weeks.
18-50 years old, pregnant, assigned female at birth
Singleton pregnancy
TVU CL ≤25mm between 24 0/7 - 26 6/7 weeks of gestation
Initial multifetal gestation with subsequent multifetal pregnancy reduction, or selective fetal termination performed >14 weeks, or cotwin pregnancy loss diagnosed >14 weeks
Cerclage in situ
Preterm labor, defined as painful regular uterine contractions and change in cervical dilation
