Abstract:

In most pregnancies labour begins at term in the presence of intact fetal membranes. Without intervention the membranes usually spontaneously rupture near the end of the first stage of labour. In 10% of pregnancies that deliver at term the fetal membranes fail to maintain their structural integrity and this results in their “prelabour rupture”, defined as spontaneous rupture of membranes at least one hour before the onset of labour. In 95–98% of these cases at term, labour is precipitated within 48 hours. Although preterm birth, defined as birth prior to 37 completed weeks of pregnancy, occurs in only 7–8% of all pregnancies, 40–60% of these deliveries are preceded by prelabour rupture of the fetal membranes.

Abstract:

Prelabour rupture of the membranes(PROM) is generally defined as rupture of the membranes prior to the onset of labour. When this occurs at term (greather than/equal 37 weeks of pregnancy) it is referred to as term PROM (to distinguish it from preterm PROM). The time interval between membrane rupture and the onset of labour is termed the latent period. The duration of this period is known to vary inversely with the gestational age at membrane rupture.

Abstract:

To find outmaternal and fetal outcome in induction of labourcompared with expectant management for prelabour rupture of membranes at term. Design: Open randomizedcomparative study. Setting and period: Gynae Unit- II Services Hospital, from 1 April 2007 to 30 September 2007. stPatient and methods: 100 patients at > 37 weeks with ruptures membranes with no contraindication to vaginal deliverywere enrolled in the study. 50 patients were in the expectant group while 50 patients were in the induction group.Results: Both groups had the same general characteristics but the Misoprostol group had a significantly shorter latancyperiod (10-16 hour Vs 20-24 hours), shorter period of hospitalization, lesser LSCS rate (24% Vs 34%) lesser need ofaugmentation (40% Vs 62%), choroamnionitis (3%Vs 7.8%), and postpartumfever (1% Vs 1.8%) when compared withexpectant group. Rate of infected wound after LSCS were compared in induction and expectant groups (2.2% Vs2.6%), also there was no difference between them regarding neonatal morbidity and nursery admission. Conclusion:So it was concluded that there was slightly high maternal complications in expectant group but no long-term maternalmorbidity. Both groups have no effect on neonatal morbidity and mortality however the duration between PROM anddelivery effect the neonatal admission in nursery and antibiotic requirements.

Abstract:

Background:Normal pregnancy requires that the physical integrity of the fetal membranes be maintained until term delivery. Objective:To detect preterm prelabour rupture of membrane in pregnant women with history of watery vaginal discharge by measurement of placental alpha microglobulin 1 in cervicovaginal fluid. Methods:A case-control study done at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Al-Imamein Al-Kadhimein Medical City, included 100 pregnant women attending the Outpatient Clinic with a gestational age ranging between 28-36 weeks +6 days, 50 cases with rupture of membrane (study group) and 50 cases without any complaint (control group). All women underwent sterile speculum vaginal examination then nitrazine paper used, finally placental alpha microglobulin1 level was measured by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit in vaginal washing fluid. Results:A highly significant association was found between mean of placental alpha microglobulin 1 in vaginal fluid of women with premature rupture of membrane compared to the control. The validity results of placental alpha microglobulin 1 findings regarding premature rupture of membrane include: sensitivity (100%), specificity (98.0%), +ve predictive value (98.1%), -ve predictive value (100%) and accuracy (99.0%), while for nitrazine; the sensitivity (94.0%), specificity (90.0%), +ve predictive value (90.4%), -ve predictive value (93.7%) and accuracy (92%) and for vaginal fluid sensitivity (80.0%), specificity (72.0%), +ve predictive value (74.1%), -ve predictive value (78.3%) and accuracy (76.0%). Conclusion:The placental alpha microglobulin-1 immunoassay in vaginal fluid wash found to be accurate and noninvasive test, in identifying preterm prelabour rupture of the membrane.

Abstract:

Background: Prelabour rupture of membrane defined as spontaneous rupture of membrane prior to the onset of regular uterine contractions. The incidence of PROM varies from 6-18%. Management of term PROM is not having specific guidelines leading to management dilemma.Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 100 women with singleton pregnancy, cephalic presentation with spontaneous PROM at term. The aim to compare maternal and perinatal outcome of early induction with expectant management in women with PROM. The patients were divided into two group expectant group and early induction group. Induction of labour was done by PGE2 gel and expectant group patient were observed for 24 hours for spontaneous labour since leaking. Augmentation of labour was done with Oxytocin if required. Outcomes were measured as PROM to delivery interval, induction to delivery interval, mode of delivery, maternal and neonatal morbidity.Results: Eighty percent of women of expectant group went into active labour within 24 hours, and all patient of induction group went into active labour in 18 hours (p<0.001). ROM to active labour interval and ROM to delivery interval were significantly less in early induction group, (9.87 and 17.212 hour) compared to expectant group (19.118 and 23.34-hour, p<0.001). Fetal distress and LSCS were comparatively higher in induction group (16%vs 2% p=0.038). Neonatal Sepsis was seen more in expectant group but statistically insignificant (22% versus 16%, p=0.26).Conclusions: Women with term PROM can be given informed choice of expectant management and early induction explaining the merits and demerits of both options.

Abstract:

Background: The leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality is prematurity in developed and underdeveloped countries. In one third of the patients with preterm labour, there is associated premature rupture of membranes. The study was conducted to evaluate the clinical presentation of Pre-labour Rupture of Membrane (PROM) in pregnancy and obstetric outcome. Materials and methods: This is a cross sectional study carried out in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, between September 2013 to February 2014. About 50 women having PROM with more than 32 weeks gestational age who admitted in the above department for delivery were enrolled in this study. Results: The mean age was found 27.4 ± 4.42 years with range from 17 to 41 years. Forty eight percent of PROM patient were primi and 52.0 percent of patients were multigravida. Six percent patients were illiterate. Almost two third patients were housewives. More than half (54.0%) of the patients were came from poor class income group family. Majority (64.0%) patients had term PROM (>37 weeks) gestational age and the mean gestational age was 38.1 ± 2.7 weeks with range from 32- 40 weeks. More than half (54.0%) didn't received any antenatal checkup. A total of (56.0%) patients had associated disease, out of which anaemia was more common. Twelve percent had diabetes mellitus and 8.0% had UTI infection. Almost two third (64.0%) was vaginal delivery and 18(36.0%) were caesarean section and common indication for caesarean section was fetal distress (38.9%). Two third patients were healthy and 17 patients had morbidities, wound infection is highest (29.4%). The mean birth weight was found 2.74 ± 0.7 kg. APGAR score >7 at 1 minute was found (92.0%) and (94.0%) at 5 minutes of birth of baby after birth. Fetal outcome take home alive (98.0%) and neonatal death 2.0%. Among 50 foetus morbidity develop in 26 cases. Among them respiratory insufficiency is highest (38.5%). Conclusion: Motivation of the patients, health education, improvement of nutritional status of mother, neonatal care service, early diagnosis, treatment, overall institutional delivery is needed for reduction of neonatal morbidity and mortality, as well as maternal morbidity.

Abstract:

Objective. To describe the early neurodevelopmental outcomes following fetal exposure to previable preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (pPPROM). Methods. This was a secondary analysis of a subgroup of neonates born following pPPROM from a retrospective cohort study (2009–2015). Surviving infants who underwent standardized neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18–24 months corrected age (CA) between 2017 and 2019 were eligible for inclusion. Data abstracted from hospital charts were linked to prospectively collected developmental outcomes stored in an electronic database from a regional neonatal follow-up clinic. The primary outcome was Bayley-III composite scores (compared to the population mean 100, standard deviation (SD) 15). Secondary outcomes included presence of cerebral palsy, vision loss, hearing impairment, and requirement of rehabilitation therapy. Descriptive statistics were used to present results. Results. 25.7% (19/74) of neonates born after pPPROM survived to hospital discharge, but only 21.6% (16/74) survived to 18–24 months CA. Of these, 9 infants were eligible for follow-up at the regional clinic and 7 had developmental outcomes stored in the electronic database. Infants exposed to pPPROM exhibited Bayley-III scores more than 1 SD below the population mean across all three domains: cognitive 84.9 (SD 12.2); motor 82.3 (SD 11.5); and language 66.4 (SD 18.9). There were particular deficiencies in language development with 71% (5/7) scoring more than 2 SDs below the population mean. There were no cases of cerebral palsy. Conclusions. Only 1 in 5 infants born following expectantly managed pPPROM survived to 18–24 months CA. These infants born after pPPROM had significantly lower Bayley-III scores and particular deficiencies in language development. Better understanding of early neurodevelopmental challenges following pPPROM will help refine counselling of families contemplating expectant management and provide insights into the postnatal educational resources required to improve long-term developmental outcomes for these children.

Abstract:

Objectives: To compare outcome of conventional treatment of Pre labor rupture of membranes (PROM) with active treatment in term patients. Place and Duration: This study was Conducted in Family Medics Infertility and Maternity Centre Karachi from March 2022 till June 2022. Materials & Methods: We conducted a randomized control trial on 74 registered patients who presented to the labor room with term pregnancy and with the ruptured membranes at thirty-seven weeks or more gestation verified from the last normal menstrual period or a dating scan. Two groups were randomized as either spontaneous labor or active management by Prostin.37 patients presented in Prelabour rupture of membranes were examined as per departmental policy and left for spontaneous labor and 37 women were actively managed by inserting Prostin in the posterior fornix. Main Outcomes Measured: The outcome of interest was intervention vs .non intervention regarding timespan between PROM and initiation of labour in respective groups. Secondary outcome included patients who did not respond to either conventional measures or active treatment and required caesarian section. Results: The time duration between rupture membrane and initiation of labour was less in intervention group as compared to conservative group (6.40hrs vs. 5.03hrs).The rates with respect to normal delivery or caesarian section were same in test and control groups (27 pts. vs. 25 pts.). There was no statistically significant difference regarding complication in both the arms in study. (P-value=0.967) Conclusion: The results of our study showed that there are no differences in outcomes of conservative management of PROM with that of active management. However, patients managed actively in intervention group delivered earlier as matched with patients with spontaneous management. Keywords: Term pregnancy, PROM, Spontaneous vaginal delivery, Emergency Cesarean section. The Registration number of the study specified by the university is JSMU/IRB/2022/-601.

Abstract:

Background: Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) refers to the loss of integrity of membranes before onset of labor, with resulting leakage of amniotic fluid and establishment of communication between the amniotic cavity and the endocervical canal and vagina. The aim of the study was to compare the fetal and maternal outcomes of actively managed and expectantly managed term PROM in a rural setup.Methods: In this prospective study we included 200 women with diagnosed prelabour rupture of membranes. All women had gestational age >37 weeks and <41 weeks with singleton pregnancy and vertex presentation. Study excluded all patients with previous uterine scar or with any medical or surgical disorder. They were randomly divided in two groups with 100 women each: Group A which was induced with PGE1 or oxytocin depending on their cervical score and Group E which was managed expectantly and late induction after 24 hours was done. Both the groups were given intravenous antibiotics. They were evaluated on the basis of fetal and maternal outcomes.Results: In this study we found that 70% women who were managed expectantly went in labour within 24 hours of PROM. But PROM to delivery interval was longer in expectantly managed as compared to actively managed or induced group. Rate of cesarean was more in induced group but was statistically insignificant when compared in both the groups. So was NICU admission more in expectant group but was statistically insignificant when compared in both the groups.Conclusions: Expectant managed can be done in patients with term PROM to reduce the cesarean rate in rural setup. There was no significant difference in maternal and fetal outcomes of the management.

Abstract:

Prelabour rupture of membranes (PROM) refers to the disruption of foetal membranes before the onset of labour, resulting in the leakage of amniotic fluid. PROM complicates 3% and 8% of preterm and term pregnancies, respectively. Accurate and timely diagnosis is crucial for effective management to prevent adverse maternal- and foetal-outcomes. The diagnosis of equivocal PROM cases with traditional methods often becomes challenging in current obstetrics practice; therefore, various novel biochemical markers have emerged as promising diagnostic tools. This narrative review is sought to review the published data to understand the current and emerging trends in diagnostic modalities in term and preterm pregnancies complicated with PROM and the potential role of various markers for predicting preterm PROM (pPROM) and chorioamnionitis in women with pPROM.

Abstract:

Until recently two possibilities were available to the expectant parents of a fetus diagnosed with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia: termination of pregnancy or continuation of the pregnancy until term with a potential change in the place of delivery. Open fetal surgery has been used to treat a growing number of congenital malformations with life-threatening or highly morbid consequences including congenital diaphragmatic hernia. However, its effectiveness is limited by the occurrence of preterm labour, chorioamniotic membrane separation, preterm prelabour rupture of the membranes and altered fetal homeostasis. These problems were the impetus for the development of minimal access fetal surgery. Developments in endoscopic surgical technology over the past three decades have provided the opportunity to develop techniques adapted for prenatal fetal intervention.

Abstract:

Background: The aim is to study the prevalence of prelabour rupture of the membranes (PROM), to identify risk factors, mode of delivery, and its maternal and fetal effects.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology at Government Head Quarters Hospital, Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu, with a duration of 6months (January 2020 – June 2020). The study was conducted on 800 pregnant women between 28-42 weeks of gestational age consecutively and those who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were taken into study.Results: The prevalence of PROM was 27.9% (tPROM 24.6% and PPROM 3.2%). Most of the cases were primigravida (74%). Risk factors associated with PROM were low socioeconomic state (63.2%), urinary tract infection (UTI) (7.2%), vaginal infections (5.8%), and previous history of PROM (3.1%). Most of the patients were delivered by lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) (55.2%), normal vaginal delivery (39.9%) and forceps delivery (4.9%). The most common indication for LSCS was fetal distress (43.9%). Misoprostol induction was associated with more failed induction (2 times) than syntocinon. Maternal complications were post-partum haemorrhage (PPH) (8%), fever (6.7%), wound infection (6.2%), manual removal of placenta (4.4%), and puerperal sepsis (0.9%). Neonatal complications were neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions (14%), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (11%), neonatal sepsis (2.6%). Maternal (54.5%) and neonatal (90%) morbidity were more in prolonged PROM >24 hours.Conclusions: Antenatal screening for genitourinary infections especially in cases of the previous history of abortions and PROM should be done. Oxytocin is the preferred method of induction over misoprostol in this study. Active management in term PROM cases can reduce the cesarean section rate.

Abstract:

Background: Pre-eclampsia and other hypertensive disorder in pregnancy are among the top causes of maternal and perinatal death globally. About 10% of all pregnancies have pre labor (premature) rupture of membranes (PROM), of which 7%–8% occur after 37–42 weeks. The objective of the study was to observe if pre-eclampsia is associated with spontaneous PROM. Method: Eighty (80) eligible pregnant women with gestational age ≥20 weeks were included in this study. They were divided into 2 equal case and control groups; 40 pregnant women with Pre-eclampsia and 40 pregnant women with normal blood pressure. The association of the risk of spontaneous PROM was assessed among these groups. Results: In this study 87.5% of the Pre-eclampsia case group and 75% of the normotensive control group were primigravida. There was a significant association between the gestational age of 82.5% of the Pre-eclampsia group and 70% of the normotensive group being full term (p=0.034). In the Pre-eclampsia group, there were 29(72.5%) PROM with a significant association (p=0.010), whereas in the normotensive group, there were 4 (10%) PROM with no significant association. The risk of PROM was found among Pre-eclampsia patients. Conclusion: In this study, we concluded that Pre-eclampsia is associated with the risk of spontaneous PROM.

Abstract:

Aims: Majority of women with prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM) at term will go in to labor within 24 hours. However early delivery will reduce the maternal and fetal infection and reduce the need for antibiotics for newborn. It will also increase maternal satisfaction. Oxytocin is being used for several decades for induction of labor in PROM. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) has shown promising results for the same purpose. A randomized controlled trial carried out to determine the effectiveness and acceptability of vaginal prostaglandin E2 for induction of labor in women with PROM at term. Methods: A total of 162 women with singleton pregnancies at >37 weeks, cephalic presentations, Bishop scores of and#60;6 were randomly allocated to receive either oxytocin or vaginal PGE2. The primary outcome measure was induction to delivery interval. Secondary outcomes were caesarean section rate, postpartum maternal fever, neonatal fever, and special care baby unit (SCBU) admissions. Results: The induction to delivery interval was not significantly different (p -0.558) in oxytocin group (630.9 + 31.1 min) as compared to PGE2 group (635.2 + 27.1 min). Incidence of postpartum maternal fever, neonatal fever, and SCBU admission were almost similar in both groups. Uncomplicated vaginal delivery rates 2022were almost same in both groups (65.3% in PG group and 62.5% in oxytocin group). Conclusion: Vaginal PGE2 appears to be as efficient as oxytocin for labor induction in term pregnancies with PROM and unfavorable cervices. However PGE2 doesn’t have additional advantages over oxytocin. As vaginal PGE2 is more expensive, it is rational to opt for oxytocin infusion to induce labor in term prelabor rupture of membranes accompanied with low Bishop’s scores.

Abstract:

Abstract Background: During the first 36 to 38 weeks of normal gestation, the myometrium is in a preparatory yet unresponsive state. Concurrently, the cervix begins an early stage of remodeling yet maintains structural integrity. Induction of labour is a complex process involving cervical ripening which undergo extensive remodeling and dynamic changes controlled by hormonal, inflammatory changes, and other biological processes. Aim of the Work: to assess the effect of intravenous administration of dexamethasone on the induction delivery interval in term patients with prelabour rupture of membranes undergoing induction of labor. Patients and Methods: This randomized control trial was conducted at department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital (ASUMH) in the period between August 2020 and January 2021. Participants of this study were 80 full term pregnant women with pre-labor rupture of membranes attended the labor ward in El Demerdash Maternity Hospital and scheduled for induction of labor by 8 mg dexamethasone IV before starting induction by PGE1, after 4 hours oxytocin was added by 1 IU/hr with the dose increasing by 1 IU every 30 minutes till optimal contractions were reached which were three uterine contractions in 10 minutes and each lasting for 40-50 seconds. Results: Fetal distress, arrest of delivery and indications of CS delivery were non-significantly less frequent among Dexamethasone group. Induction-active phase and active phase durations were significantly shorter among dexamethasone group than among control group. Second and third stages durations were non-significantly shorter among dexamethasone group than among control group. Total induction-delivery duration was significantly shorter and rate of vaginal delivery was significantly higher among dexamethasone group than among control group. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), postpartum endometritis, chorioamnionitis were not reported among the studied groups. No significant difference between Dexamaethasone and Control groups regarding neonatal condition Conclusion: Intravenous administration of dexamethasone in addition to labor induction protocol shortened the induction - active phase and active phase durations. It shortened the total induction-delivery duration and increased the rate of successful vaginal delivery. It has no effect on second and third stages durations with no increase in incidence of intrapartum, postpartum nor neonatal complications.

Abstract:

Preterm prelabor ruptures of fetal membranes (pPROM) are a pregnancy complication responsible for 30% of all preterm births. This pathology currently appears more as a consequence of early and uncontrolled process runaway activation, which is usually implicated in the physiologic rupture at term: inflammation. This phenomenon can be septic but also sterile. In this latter case, the inflammation depends on some specific molecules called “alarmins” or “damage-associated molecular patterns” (DAMPs) that are recognized by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to a microbial-free inflammatory response. Recent data clarify how this activation works and which receptor translates this inflammatory signaling into fetal membranes (FM) to manage a successful rupture after 37 weeks of gestation. In this context, this review focused on two PRRs: the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) and the NLRP7 inflammasome.

Abstract:

Introduction: Term premature or prelabour rupture of membrane (PROM) refers to the disruption in fetal membranes before the onset of labor, after 37 weeks of gestation. PROM is commonly encountered in our practice but there is no published study on PROM in our country. This study was conducted to determine the incidence, clinical profile and it’s association with maternal and fetal outcome in term PROM in our hospital. Methods: A retrospective cross sectional study, carried out at a regional referral hospital in Bhutan. Medical records-based data was collected from clinically diagnosed cases of term PROM, from 1st January 2018 to 31st December 2020. Results: The incidence of term PROM among deliveries was 5.5 %. Unfavourable maternal outcome was seen in Primigravida (p-value=0.05), PROM duration greater than or equal to 24 hours (p-value= 0.007), Prolonged latency period of 24 hours or more (p-value=0.03), prophylactic antibiotics after 18 hours (p-value=0.05) and vaginal delivery (p-value=0.0001). Unfavourable fetal outcome was observed in cases referred in from regional health centres (p-value=0.01). Conclusions: Early initiation of appropriate prophylactic antibiotics, Early induction of labour as opposed to expectant management, Prompt referral of all PROM cases from primary health centres and district hospitals and availability of appropriate prophylactic antibiotics at all health centres may improve maternal and fetal outcome in term PROM.
