Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Preterm birth (PTB) is in quantity and in severity the most important pregnancy complication in
obstetric care in the developed world. A cervical pessary and a cervical cerclage are both considered
as potential preventive treatments for spontaneous PTB in women at increase risk due to a history
of preterm birth or a short cervical length. This study evaluates the hypothesis that a cervical pessary
is non-inferior to a cervical cerclage in women who are scheduled for cerclage based on their risk
profile for spontaneous PTB.
The study is a nationwide open-label multicenter randomized clinical trial. Eligible women will be
randomized <24weeks in case of previous preterm delivery and short cervical
length to either a cervical pessary or cervical cerclage or before 16 weeks in case a primary cerclage
is required. Both cervical pessary and cervical cerclage will be removed at 36 weeks of GA or until
delivery, whatever comes first.
The primary outcome will be delivery before 32 weeks (<32 weeks). Secondary outcomes will
be preterm rate birth before 24, 28, 34 and 37 weeks, time from intervention to delivery, (early)
premature rupture of membranes, maternal infection, maternal side effects and composite bad
neonatal outcome including both morbidity and mortality rate of children as well as costs.

Onderzoeksopzet
We will need a run-in period of 3 months for the study set up, and 36 months for inclusion. After inclusion of the last patient, 6 months (additional pregnancy) will be needed for data collection and report of results. The first report on the primary outcome is expected at 4 years after the start of the study.
