What is it about?
The use of uterine artery Doppler velocimetry during peak uterine contraction for patients exhibiting preterm labor symptoms might be effective for the identification of pregnant women at risk for preterm delivery.

Why is it important?
We believe that this information may provide essential clues for evaluating preterm delivery as it relates directly to the characteristics of uterine contraction.
Perspectives
further long-running prospective studies on this novel field of research are still required to test our preliminary results.
