Managing Preterm PROM Risks and Protocols by david wyanto is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PROM) complicates around 3% of pregnancies in the United States and is a significant cause of preterm birth as well as maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Management of preterm PROM involves determining whether to continue the pregnancy or expedite delivery based on gestational age and risk of infection and complications. While conservative management aims to prolong pregnancy, over 50% of women with preterm PROM remote from term will deliver within a week.
