Maternal and fetal outcome of preterm premature rupture of membranes in less than 37 weeks of gestation in a tertiary care hospital - A prospective observational study

Jatoth Madhavi Bai, Vasantha Kumari K P, Jaimie T Jacob, Lakshmi Vinodh S.


Abstract
Background: Preterm premature rupture of membrane (PPROM) is the spontaneous rupture of fetal membranes before the onset of labor and before 37 weeks of gestation. This prospective study was done to know the materno-fetal outcome in the same. It complicates 3% of all gestation and 30–40% of all preterm births. In a developing country like India, it is one of the most prominent causes of preterm births, low birth weight, and high perinatal deaths.

Aims and Objectives: Materno-foetal outcomes of PPROM in women <37 weeks of gestation in a tertiary care teaching hospital.

Materials and Methods: A total of 120 pregnant mothers who got admitted to SAT Hospital with PPROM <37 weeks of gestation formed the study group. Detailed clinical history and examination were undertaken for all subjects and all of them were followed up till discharge after delivery.

Results: The study group had a mean age of 20–24 and mean gestational period was 34–37 weeks. The majority had spontaneous vaginal delivery (62.5%). Low birth weight babies formed 78.3%. Intensive care unit (ICU) admission rate was 73.3%. In newborns, the incidence of respiratory distress was 64.2% and that of hypoxia was 60.0%.

Conclusion: From the present study, we can conclude that PPROM increases maternal and fetal morbidity. Conservative management in the absence of features of chorioamnionitis is recommended. Fetal outcome is improved by good neonatal facility and ICU setups.

Key words: Preterm Premature Rupture of Membrane; Preterm Premature Rupture of Membrane Delivery Interval; Maternal Outcome; Fetal Outcome; Chorioamnionitis
