摘要

Preterm birth increases the risk for infant health problems, long-term developmental issues, and death.1 Because of glaring and avoidable geographic and racial disparities, the prevention of preterm births is an evidenced-based practice for promoting health equity. So far, only a few interventions have been found to effectively prevent such births among women with known risk factors. A synthetic form of progesterone, 17P, is one of these interventions. Unfortunately, access to 17P can be challenging, especially for those mothers who need it the most as the same societal factors that perpetuate disparities also inhibit access to this potentially lifesaving treatment. State and territorial health agencies can play a leadership role by identifying women who could benefit from this intervention, connecting them to care and treatment, facilitating Medicaid coverage, and delivering and administering injections in ways that improve accessibility. Preterm Birth Is a Health Equity Issue Nearly 1 in 10 infants is born preterm, defined as birth before 37 weeks of gestation, in the United States. Racial disparities in preterm birth are glaring: nonHispanic white infants are born preterm far less often (at a rate of 10.2%) than African American and Hispanic infants (16.3% and 11.3%, respectively).2 Studies have linked premature birth with long-term medical conditions and declining social achievement such as delays in achieving higher education and obtaining a well-paying job.3 Preventing preterm birth is critical to supporting long-term infant health and development.
