Research progress of cervical cerclage in the treatment of cervical incompetence
Cervical incompetence(CIC)is often characterized by repeated painless shortening and dilation of the cervical canal in the middle and late trimester of pregnancy,resulting in inevitable abortion or preterm labor.The birth of premature infants seriously affects the quality and health of the population.Every day of delayed delivery at 22 to 26 weeks of gestation increases the survival rate of newborns by 3%.Cervical cerclage can effectively prolong pregnancy weeks and reduce the incidence of miscarriage and premature delivery.Therefore,it is very important to choose the right operation time and carry out standard postoperative management to improve the success rate of cervical cerclage and prolong pregnancy weeks.Based on domestic and foreign clinical studies and the latest guidelines,this paper reviews the timing of cervical cerclage,postoperative drug management and postoperative follow-up.
