The presence of cervicovaginal fetal fibronectin in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy identifies a subgroup of women are at high risk for preterm delivery. This phenomenon may reflect the separation of the chorion from the decidual layer of the uterus with release of fetal fibronectin into the cervical and vaginal secretions.
