Abstract

Preterm birth, as an important factor affecting the health of pregnant women and perinatal fetuses, is a hot issue worth long-term attention around the world. This paper will describe the risk influencing factors of preterm birth and pregnancy outcomes from the aspects of social factors, environmental factors, pregnancy-related diseases and pregnancy outcomes. In order to early identification and diagnosis of preterm birth, prevent the occurrence of preterm birth, improve pregnancy outcomes, improve the quality of fetal life.

Keywords
