About this study

Women with a history of cervical insufficiency can be managed with elective cervical cerclage placed at the beginning of the second trimester. The McDonald technique is the most commonly used. Though lack a robust scientific evidence, the cerclage is removed electively at 36-37 weeks of gestation in order to avoid maternal cervical laceration. In addition, the incidence of spontaneous delivery is nearly 20% within 72 hours after ceclage removal, thus elective cerclage removal at 36-37 weeks may also put the newborns at complications associated with iatrogenic late preterm/early term delivery

Read the detailed description

The optimal timing of cervical cerclage removal is yet unclear.

In the present study we will evaluate maternal and neonatal outcome variables after elective removal of the cerclage, and may suggest a gestational week cut-off for optimal cerclage removal/

Primary outcome:

Neonatal respiratory morbidity after cerclage removal. The respiratory outcome will be compared across each gestational week of delivery after cerclage removal, that is; group 1 (36-36.6 weeks), group 2 (37-37.6 weeks), group 3 (38-38.6 weeks), group 4 (beyond 39 weeks).

Secondary outcomes:

Time interval between cerclage removal and gestational age of delivery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Disease of A Newborn, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yaniv Zipori, M.D (+972 58 7966963, y_zipori@rambam.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cercalge removal and neonatal morbidity (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Nov 2019.
