Expectant management for a high-risk pregnancy patient who had preterm premature rupture of membranes with placenta and vasa praevia plus velamintous cord insertion

Placenta Praevia, Placenta Praevia Accreta and Vasa Praevia: Diagnosis and Management

Amnioinfusion in preterm premature rupture of membranes (AMIPROM): a randomised controlled trial of amnioinfusion versus expectant management in very early preterm premature rupture of membranes--a pilot study.

BACKGROUND Fetal survival is severely compromised when the amniotic membrane ruptures between 16 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. Reduced amniotic fluid levels are associated with poor lung development, whereas adequate levels lead to better perinatal outcomes. Restoring amniotic fluid by means of ultrasound-guided amnioinfusion (AI) may be of benefit in improving perinatal and long-term outcomes in ...

Effects of Progesterone on Latency Period in Patients with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes during 24-34 Weeks of Pregnancy

Background & Aims: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is the leading cause of preterm birth and perinatal mortality and morbidity, and complications. The objective of the present study was to assess the effect of progesterone agents (rectal suppositories and weekly injection of 17- hydroxyprogesterone caproate) on latency period in women with PPROM. Methods: This randomized, double-...

Immediate Delivery versus Expectant Management in Pregnant Women with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes at 34 Weeks: A Cohort Study

Aim: to compare delivery to expectant management for cases of preterm premature rupture of membranes at 34weeks. Methods: This was a prospective study carried out at Menoufia University Hospital, Egypt on 84 pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes at 34 weeks, the studied women were divided to 2 equal groups: group A managed by immediate delivery and group B managed expectant...

Antibiotics for preterm premature rupture of membranes.

OBJECTIVES The aim of the review was to evaluate the effectiveness and the immediate and long-term safety of the effects of administering antibiotics to women with preterm prelabour rupture of membranes on maternal infectious morbidity, fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, and longer term childhood development. SEARCH STRATEGY All randomized trials identified using the search strategy ...
