Logistic regression analysis of Amnisure & Fibronectin tests in predicting Time-To-Spontaneous Delivery in patients with preterm labor and intact membranes

Test Result Test to Spontaneous Delivery Duration
< 48 hours (n=10) a < 7 days (n=22) b <14 days (n=27) c
OR CI OR CI OR CI
Amnisure Test (n=90) (+) 9.7 2.2–43.3 7.0 2.0–24.1 9.4 2.4–36.4
(−) 1 1 1
Fibronectin Test (n=64) (+) 1.8 0.3–9.9 3.2 0.9–11.7 5.2 1.4–19.8
(−) 1 1 1
Fibronectin Test (+) (n=28) Aminsure Test (+) 1.6 0.2–15.1 1.4 0.2–8.4 1.7 0.3–9.7

Fibronectin Test (−) (n=36) Aminsure Test (+) 35.6 1.1->999 365.1 4.0->999 365.1 4.0->999
(−) 1 1 1

Note: All models adjusted for gestational length at time of test and cervical dilatation except those stratified by fibronectin result due to sample size restrictions;

a

Two patients who delivered preterm within 48 hours by augmentation of labor or cesarean delivery due to maternal- fetal indications were excluded from this analysis;

b

Two patients who delivered preterm within 7 days by augmentation of labor or cesarean delivery due to maternal- fetal indications were excluded from this analysis;

c

Two patients who delivered preterm within 14 days by augmentation of labor or cesarean delivery due to maternal- fetal indications were excluded from this analysis
