Popis: To examine the influence of maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) on the rates of recurrent spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB) in women receiving 17α-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P).Retrospective analysis of a cohort of 6253 women with a singleton gestation and prior SPTB enrolled in 17P home administration program between 16.0 and 26.9 weeks. Data were grouped by pre-pregnancy BMI (lean18.5 kg/m(2), normal 18.5-24.9 kg/m(2), overweight 25-29.9 kg/m(2) and obese ≥30.0 kg/m(2)). Delivery outcomes were compared using χ(2) and Kruskal-Wallis tests with statistical significance set at p 0.05.SPTB28 weeks was significantly lower in normal weight women. Rates of recurrent SPTB37 weeks were highest in the group with BMI18.5 kg/m(2). Lean gravidas were younger, more likely to smoke, and less likely to be African-American than those with normal or increased BMI. In logistic regression, after controlling for race and prior preterm birth28 weeks, the risk of SPTB37 weeks decreased 2% for every additional 1 kg/m(2) increase in BMI.Recurrent spontaneous preterm delivery37 weeks in patients on 17P is more common in lean women (BMI18.5 kg/m(2)), and less common in obese women (BMI ≥30 kg/m(2)) suggesting that the current recommended dosing of 17 P is adequate for women with higher BMI.
