Va-Sense - Bacterial Vaginosis Once A Week Screening And Treatment To Reduce Infective Complications, Abortion And Preterm Delivery In Pregnant Women With Previous Preterm Delivery

June 28, 2010 updated by: Common Sense

VA-SENSE - BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS ONCE A WEEK SCREENING AND TREATMENT TO REDUCE INFECTIVE COMPLICATIONS, ABORTION AND PRETERM DELIVERY IN PREGNANT WOMEN WITH PREVIOUS PRETERM DELIVERY.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether screening of pregnant women with history of previous preterm delivery, once a week, for bacterial vaginosis using VA-SENSE, and treatment of positive women will reduce the risk of spontaneous preterm birth. We will compare between the effectiveness of once a week screening and once during pregnancy screening.
