The problem of prematurity is one of the first in practical obstetrics, since it determines the level of perinatal mortality and morbidity. Premature babies account for 60-70% of early neonatal deaths and 65-75% of infant deaths. Stillbirth during preterm birth is 8-13 times more common than at term [7, 8]. Newborns weighing less than 1500 g are 200 times more likely to die than those weighing more than 2500 g, and if they survive, they are 10 times more likely to suffer from neurological and somatic complications [3, 10].
In this regard, the issues of timely identification and prevention of the causes of premature birth are currently becoming especially relevant.
