The QUiPP app is a decision support tool that uses medical history and fetal fibronectin or cervical length to give an individualised score for the risk of having a spontaneous preterm delivery. The QUiPP App toolkit will help you implement the QUiPP App at your local hospital, improving care for women who arrive in threatened preterm labour.
Version 1 of this toolkit was rapidly rolled out during COVID-19 in April 2020 as it helps decrease unnecessary admissions and transfers. Version 2 has been updated based on additional feedback from sites and was made available in August 2020.
