Our OB-GYN specialists provide prematurity risk evaluation and prevention measures to avoid premature births that can result in adverse health effects in infants. Beyond screening mothers for their risk of a premature delivery, we provide treatments to reduce that risk while educating patients about the usual signs of pre-term labor and activities that may cause it to happen (such as heavy lifting). In cooperation with AdventHealth’s comprehensive Prematurity Risk Evaluation and Prevention Program, we look at risk factors such as prior miscarriages and pre-term births, uterine abnormalities and the presence of more than one fetus (twins or other multiple births). Treatments to avoid pre-term births may range from extended bedrest to progesterone therapy or a cerclage procedure.
