- W4384938275 abstract "Asymptomatic isthmic contractions are a frequent physiological phenomenon in pregnancy, sometimes triggered by bladder voiding. They can interfere with proper cervical length assessment and may lead to false images of placenta previa. However, there is limited research on the prevalence and characteristics of these contractions.This study aimed to determine the prevalence and characteristics of isthmic contractions after bladder voiding in the second trimester of pregnancy, to evaluate their effect on cervical length assessment, and to propose a new method for the objective assessment of the presence and intensity of isthmic contractions.In this prospective observational study, long videos of the uterine cervix were recorded in 30 singleton pregnancies during the second trimester of pregnancy after bladder voiding. Isthmic length and cervicoisthmic length changes were assessed over time. The isthmic length was measured using a new approach, which involved calculating the distance from the base of the cervix to the internal os, including the isthmus.Isthmic contractions were observed in 43% of pregnant women (95% confidence interval, 26%-62%) after bladder voiding. The median time for complete isthmus relaxation was 19.7 minutes (95% confidence interval, 15.0 to not available). No substantial differences in maternal characteristics were found between individuals with and without contractions. The proposed method for measuring isthmic length provided an objective assessment of the presence and intensity of isthmic contractions. A cutoff of 18 mm in isthmic length allowed for the distinction of pregnant women presenting a contraction. In addition, the study identified a characteristic undulatory pattern in the relaxation of the isthmus in half of the cases with contractions.Isthmic contractions are a common occurrence after bladder voiding in the second trimester of pregnancy and may interfere with proper cervical length assessment. We recommend performing cervical assessment at least 20 minutes after bladder voiding to reduce the risk of bias in cervical length measurement and to avoid false images of placenta previa. The new method for measuring isthmic length provides an objective way to assess the presence and intensity of isthmic contractions. Further research is needed to understand the role of isthmic contractions in the physiology of pregnancy and birth." @default.
