PreTeL (Early Labor) - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
We are doing this study to test a new medical device that can measure muscle signals in pregnancy. This device is being developed to show the difference between contractions that turn into preterm labor and contractions that do not turn into preterm labor.
What is the Condition Being Studied?
Early (Preterm) Labor
Who Can Participate in the Study?
Adults ages 18+ who:
- Are at least 24 weeks but less than 37 weeks pregnant
- Are experiencing more than 1 contraction every 10 minutes
- Are carrying either a single baby or twins

Age Group
Adults
What is Involved?
At the hospital, while you are being checked out and monitored by the team for your concern of contractions, the research study team would attach a new type of contraction monitor to your abdomen at the same time to collect additional measurements. You would need to be on the new type of monitor for at least 30 minutes, but up to a maximum of 4 hours.
