Bromothymol is used in obstetrics for detecting premature rupture of membranes.
2.
Preterm labour and premature rupture of membranes both occur more frequently in women with adenomyosis.
3.
Premature rupture of membranes and other obstetrical complications can add to the risk of early-onset sepsis.
4.
Smoking and pregnancy, combined, cause twice the risk of premature rupture of membranes, placental abruption and placenta previa.
5.
A premature rupture of membranes ( PROM ) is a rupture of the amnion that occurs prior to the onset of labor.
6.
If rupture occurs before 37 weeks, called preterm premature rupture of membranes ( PPROM ), the fetus and mother are at greater risk for complications.
7.
Health conditions that may warrant induced labour or cesarean delivery include gestational or chronic hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia, diabetes, premature rupture of membranes, severe fetal growth restriction, and post-term pregnancy.
8.
Among them are women with gestational hypertension, vaginal bleeding during the second and third trimesters, premature labor during the current or a previous pregnancy, intrauterine growth retardation, incompetent cervix, placenta previa or premature rupture of membranes.
9.
The "'Mercer protocol "'is a common regimen for antibiotic prophylaxis in the context of preterm premature rupture of membranes ( PPROM ) during pregnancy, when immediate delivery is contraindicated due to known or suspected fetal lung immaturity.
10.
This distinction could be partly explained by the " hidden mortality " associated with MC multifetal pregnancies instances lost due to premature rupture of membrane ( PROM ) or intrauterine fetal demise before a thorough diagnosis of TTTS can be made.
