This document discusses premature rupture of membranes (PROM), which is the spontaneous rupture of membranes before the onset of labor. It defines term and preterm PROM and discusses the diagnosis, causes, complications, and management of PROM. The key points are:
- PROM is diagnosed based on a history of leakage and physical exam findings like pooling of fluid. Tests like nitrazine and fern tests can also help diagnose.
- Causes of PROM can include infections, smoking, collagen deficiencies, mechanical stress from twins or polyhydramnios.
- Complications include infections, preterm labor and delivery, and respiratory distress in preterm infants.
- Management depends on gestational age,
When fetal head is delivered, but shoulders are stuck and cannot be delivered it is known as shoulder dystocia.
The anterior shoulder becomes trapped behind on the symphysis pubis, whilst the posterior shoulder may be in the hollow of the sacrum or high above the sacral promontory.
A serious pregnancy complication in which the placenta detaches from the womb (uterus).
Placental abruption occurs when the placenta detaches from the inner wall of the womb before delivery. The condition can deprive the baby of oxygen and nutrients.
Symptoms include vaginal bleeding, stomach pain and back pain in the last 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Depending on the degree of placental separation and how close the baby is to full-term, treatment may include bed rest or a Caesarean (C-section).

Keith Moore Said "It has been a great pleasure for me to help clarify statements in the Qur'an about human development. It is clear to me that these statements must have come to Muhammad from God, or Allah, because most of this knowledge was not discovered until many centuries later. This proves to me that Muhammad must have been a messenger of God, or Allah."
Pre-labor rupture of membranes (PROM), previously known as premature rupture of membranes, is breakage of the amniotic sac before the onset of labor.
Women usually experience a painless gush or a steady leakage of fluid from the vagina.
If it occurs before 37 weeks it is known as PPROM (‘preterm’ prelabour rupture of membranes) otherwise it is known as term PROM.

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. PRO M (Premature rupture of membranes)
Definition: Spontaneous rupture of membranes after
28 weeks of gestation before the onset of labor.
• Term PROM: Rupture of membranes after 37 weeks
• Preterm PROM: Before 37 weeks
• Prolonged PROM: Longer than 18 hrs/ 12 hrs.
Latency period: Time between rupture of
membranes to onset of labor.
3. PROM-Cont’d
Diagnosis:
History: complaint of leakage of liquor as gush or slow
leak;followed by intermittent leakage.
-Complications of PROM: infection, PTL, etc.
Physical findings:
- Negative discrepancy
- If complicated, uterine contraction, tenderness
- Sterile speculum examination with or without
valsalva maneuver( leakage or pooling)
4. • Incidence: average 5- 10% of all deliveries and
up to 30% of preterm deliveries.
• Approximately 70% of cases of PROM occur in
pregnancies at term.
PROM is the clinically recognized precipitating
cause of about one third of all preterm births.
Incidence
5. Causes multifactorial
• 1. Intrinsic membrane weakness
a. Infections
b. Smoking
c. Malnutrition
d. Collagen Deficency
• 2. Infection (proteolytic enzymes)
• 3. Mechanical stress
a. Twin gestation
b. Polyhydramnios
c. Fetal Malformations
• 4. Unknown
6. Diagnosis-cont’d
Investigations:
Nitrazine paper test: principle is alkaline nature of
amniotic fluid(accuracy of approximately 93%)
Became blue
False +:blood, semen, alkaline urine, bacterial vaginosis,
and trichomoniasis
Ferning pattern:accuracy of diagnosis of PROM of
approximately 96%
False +ve: contamination by semen or cervical mucus
False –ve :dry swab, contamination with blood at a 1:1
dilution, or not allowing sufficient time for the fluid to dry
on the slide
Unaffected by meconium at any concentration and by
pH alteration.
8. Diagnosis-cont’d
• Ultrasound: support diagnosis & fetal wellbeing.
• Dye test: indigo carmine instillation
• Meconium on the vulva
• Vernix caseosa on the vulva
9. DIAGNOSIS
History
Gush or Leakage of fluid PV (Duration, Smell)
Is she in Labour
Yes
No
Speculum/Digital Exam
Sterile Speculum Examination
± Valsalva Man
Leakage through cervix No leakage through cervix
Presence of meconium/vernix
Pooling at post fornix No pooling
- Nitrazin paper test
-Fern test Pad test for 24 hrs
PROM No wetting Wetting
+ ve - ve
Suspsious
Treat as PROM
- US Oligohydramnios
- Dye test
PROM +ve -ve Follow at OPD Level
10. PROM- investigations
• CBC
• U/A, Culture & Sensitivity
• High vaginal swab for culture
• Phosphatidylglycerol from vaginal pool
• Biophysical profile
• CTG for non-stress test
12. Complications of PROM
Labor: In term PROM labor starts in 24 hours in
about 90%. In Preterm PROM, labor starts in 70-80%
of cases in one week time
Ascending infection: one third
• Increased incidence of cord prolapse
Fetal pulmonary hypoplasia
Prematurity
• Operative delivery
• Abruption
13. Management of PROM
• Accurate diagnosis
• Avoid digital vaginal examination
• Bed rest
• Management depends on:
- GA
- Presence or absence of labor
- Infection or not
- Fetal condition
14. Indications for pregnancy termination in
PROM
• Term PROM
• Labor
• Presence of infection
• IUFD
• Congenital anomalies of fetus incompatible to
life
• Abnormal fetal surveillance
15. Preterm PROM
GA > 34 weeks is controversial either conservative
management or termination
GA< 34 weeks, conservative management
Components of conservative management:
- Monitor maternal PR, Temp., FHR every 4 hours
- CBC, U/A, ESR/CRP twice per week
- BPP/NST twice per week
Corticosteroids if less than 32/34 weeks
- Administer antibiotics: ampicillin (iv)+ erythromycin X
48hrs followed by amoxacillin(po) & erythromycin to
complete a total of seven days
16. • Two indications for prophylactic antibiotics in
PPROM:
prevention of perinatal GBS infection
infection is either the triggering cause of PPROM
or that infection ensuing after PPROM triggers the
labor
17. Chorioamnionitis
• Clinical or subclinical
Criteria for clinical chorioamnionitis:
- Maternal temperature > 38o C
- Uterine tenderness
- Foul smelling amniotic fluid
- High WBC count(>16000/18000)
- Maternal &/ or fetal tachycardia
18. Sub clinical chorioamnionitis
• Amniocentesis: intramniotic infection is
present if:
1. Culture: bacterial colony count > 102 / ml
fluid
2. Presence of bacteria on gram stain
3. Glucose level<15 mg/dl
4. WBC> 100/ml
