Etiology of Premature Rupture of Membranes
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The definition of PROM is rupture of membranes before the onset of labor. Membrane rupture before labor and before 37 weeks of gestation is referred to as preterm PROM. Management is influenced by gestational age and the presence of complicating factors, such as clinical infection, abruptio placentae, labor, or nonreassuring fetal status. An accurate assessment of gestational age and knowledge of the maternal, fetal, and neonatal risks are essential to appropriate evaluation, counseling, and care of patients with PROM.
