| Abstract | ||
| Introduction: Premature membrane rupture (PROM) is generally characterized as membrane rupture at any point prior to the initiation of uterine contractions. PROM, which occurs before 37 weeks of gestation, is referred to as preterm premature membrane rupture (PPROM), while PROM, which occurs after 37 weeks of gestation, is referred to as the term premature membrane rupture. The latent phase is known as the duration of the rupture of the membranes until the onset of true labor. (1) Aim of the Work: This study was conducted to evaluate the maternal and perinatal outcome of PPROM (between 24 and 37 weeks) among pregnant women attending Minia University Maternity Hospital [MUMH]. Patients and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, Minia University Maternity Hospital (MUMH) during the period from march 2021 to august 2021 and after being approved by the local department ethical committee of MUMH. All patients diagnosed by PPROM during this study period were recruited into this study. Results: This prospective observational study was conducted in MUMH during the period from march to December 2021. 110 pregnant females presented with PPROM between 24 and 37weeks’ gestation were recruited in this study | ||
