OBJECTIVES Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is among the most important causes of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to survey the pregnancy outcomes in preterm premature rupture of membranes with an amniotic fluid index of <5 and >5. METHODS This prospective cohort study was performed on 137 pregnant women complicated by preterm premature rupture of mem...

Introduction: Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is the amniotic before there are signs labour. Objective: This Study aims to analyze factors that influence premature membranes. Methods: research analytic with a cross-sectional design. The was conducted in Probolinggo Regency. population all mothers giving birth Regency June – August 2021 as many 90 people. sampling technique uses total samp...

OBJECTIVE Cases of a ruptured pericallosal artery aneurysm with a high risk of intraoperative premature rupture and technical difficulties for proximal vascular control require a technique for the early and safe establishment of proximal vascular control. METHODS A combined pterional or subfrontal approach exposes the bilateral A1 segments or the origin of the ipsilateral A2 segment of the an...

OBJECTIVE Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is closely related with maternal and fetal complications. Therefore, early diagnosis is extremely important to provide maternal and fetal well-being. Many inflammatory markers have been evaluated for their ability to diagnose membrane rupture at early stages. We aimed to investigate the relationship between the platelet-to-lymphocyte rati...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to study the pharmacokinetics of intravenously administered amoxicillin in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM). STUDY DESIGN Healthy women with PPROM were recruited and treated with amoxicillin (2 g initially and 1 g subsequently). Blood samples were obtained from the opposite arm and concentrations determined with the use...

We describe two cases of spontaneous rupture of the membranes, followed by premature labour at 32 and 34 weeks' gestation, in association with gonococcal infection.

The aim of the study was to compare sRAGE and esRAGE plasma levels in pregnant women with (A) threatened premature labor (n = 41), (B) preterm premature rupture of membranes (n = 49), and (C) preterm rupture of membranes at term (n = 48). The relationship between these and classic intrauterine infection markers and the latent time from symptoms up to delivery depending on RAGE's concentration w...
