The P3 Study is also known as the Path to Prevent Preterm Birth Study. This study collects detailed data and biologic samples. It will help researchers to understand why some women have more than one preterm birth. For example, information from this study may help doctors know which medications or medical care will work best to help women deliver full term. We hope that this research will help improve outcomes for moms and babies in North Carolina and beyond! We are including women who have had a previous preterm birth. We are also asking some women who have delivered only full term babies to participate.
