摘要：
The present study described the effectiveness of using an educational program for self-detection of premature labor in a group of forty-one indigent pregnant adolescents. Twenty-one of these teens self-detected premature labor and received appropriate medical intervention; only four had low birthweight infants and three delivered before 37 weeks. The overall results showed a significant use of the program and a high success to failure rate for those who received medical intervention. The cost-effectiveness and usefulness of this protocol in improving medical outcome for indigent teens are discussed.
