<h4>Objective</h4>Determine whether gestational age of 17-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17-OHPC) initiation is associated with preterm birth (PTB) risk.<h4>Study design</h4>We performed a retrospective cohort study using MarketScan® data. The primary outcome was PTB < 37 weeks. Rates of PTB were compared between medication initiation at 16-21 weeks versus 21-29 weeks. The association between compliance with weekly 17-OHPC injections and preterm birth rate was tested after adjusting for potential  ...[more]
