“…Women with PROM before 36 weeks of gestation should be managed expectantly if no maternal or fetal contraindications exist; at 37 weeks of gestation or more, if spontaneous labor does not occur, labor should be induced for those who do not have contraindications to labor. Recent studies show that expectant management and vaginal delivery are safe for preterm pregnancies with PROM (3,9,10).…”

“…The exact cause of PROM is not known, but it is a common obstetric problem that may be associated with signi cant maternal, fetal, and neonatal complications. It is not a preventable case, but studies showed that there are different predisposing factors that exist that would be possible to manage and decrease its occurrence (4,5,10).…”

“…The prevalence of PROM in East Africa is 13.8% and in North Africa it is 4%-7% (15,16). In Ethiopia, the prevalence ranges from 5 to 23% (10,(17)(18)(19)(20).…”

“…But the morbidity of the newborn exceeded 76.67% when the duration of PROM was more than 24 hours. Preterm PROM complicates approximately 3% of pregnancies and is the cause of about 1/3 of all preterm births; while term PROM complicates 8-10% of pregnancies, preterm PROM complicates 2-4% of singleton pregnancies and 7-20% of twin pregnancies (10,12,23). Furthermore, it leads to neonatal complications like prematurity, cord compression & prolapse, malpresentation, oligohydramnios, neonatal sepsis, intraventricular hemorrhage, and 16% birth asphyxia.…”

“…In Ethiopia,, training manuals and guidelines like Basic Emergency Obstetric & Newborn Care were prepared to make health professionals competent in managing a woman with obstetric emergencies, including PROM. Other strategies were also developed to address the problem, including referring women with rupture of membranes lasting longer than 8 hours to a referral-level facility for assessment and use of prophylactic antibiotics and steroids following PROM (10).…”

Background: Premature rupture of membranes is the spontaneous leakage of amniotic fluid from the amniotic sac that occurs at least one hour before the onset of labor. It is a common complication of pregnancy that leads to neonatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. There is little evidence of the prevalence and associated factors among pregnant women admitted to the obstetrics ward in the study area..Objective: To assess the prevalence and associated factors among pregnant women admitted to Dire Dawa hospitals in eastern Ethiopia.Method: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from May 17 to June 17, 2021. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select 392 pregnant women admitted to an obstetric ward. Data was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire and checklist to obtain data from the medical record. Data was collected with Kobo tool software and exported to SPSS version 24. The crude odds ratio and the AOR with 95% CI were calculated to assess the association among variables and control the confounding factors. The level of significance was declared at a p-value < 0.05. Result: All 392 (100%) pregnant women were included in the study. The prevalence of PROM was found to be 22.4%. Pregnant women who had a history of previous preterm labor (AOR = 2.449, 95% CI: 1.422, 4.217), history of PROM (AOR = 2.663, 95% CI: 1.567, 4.526), history of anemia (AOR = 2.497, 95% CI: 1.371, 4.550), history of UTI (AOR = 2.715, 95% CI: 1.575, 4.679) and history of chewing khat (AOR = 1.936, 95% CI: 1.055, 3.552) were significantly associated with pre-labor rupture of membrane.Conclusion: The prevalence of pre-labor rupture of membranes in the study was high when compared to previous studies. An intervention that focuses on strengthening the integration of messages on health promotion and disease prevention, routine early screening, diagnosis and quick treatments of UTI and anemia, nutritional counseling, iron supplementation, and giving information regarding substance use during pregnancy should be recommended.

Background: Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) is one of the obstetric problems that needs special attention, apart from the high prevalence, cases of PPROM also often cause neonatal morbidity and mortality. Inflammation is thought to be the cause of the incidence of PPROM and has a relationship with the incidence of ascending genital tract infection. The physiological immune response to inflammation is characterized by an increase in the number of circulating platelets and a decrease in the number of lymphocytes. This study aims to evaluate the high ratio of platelets to lymphocytes of maternal blood serum is a risk factor for the occurrence of preterm PROM. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study with a sample size of 70 samples, and is divided into a risk group (preterm pregnancy with PROM) and a no-risk group (preterm pregnancy without PROM). This research was conducted in the Emergency Room maternity ward and Obstetrics and Gynecology outward patient at Sanglah Hospital Denpasar for the period December 2020 to May 2021. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26 for Windows. Results: The results of the analysis of this study obtained a statistically significant difference (p = 0.000). The group with a high maternal blood serum platelet to lymphocyte ratio had a higher risk of developing preterm PROM compared to the group with a low maternal blood serum platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PR = 2.4, 95% CI = 1.60-3.69, p = 0.000). Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is the high maternal blood serum platelet to lymphocyte ratio is a risk factor for the occurrence of preterm PROM. Latar Belakang: Ketuban pecah dini (KPD) preterm merupakan salah satu masalah obstetri yang perlu mendapat perhatian khusus, selain karena prevalensi yang besar, kasus KPD preterm juga sering menyebabkan morbiditas dan mortalitas neonatus. Inflamasi diduga sebagai penyebab dari kejadian KPD preterm dan mempunyai hubungan dengan kejadian infeksi ascending traktus genital. Respon imun fisiologis terhadap inflamasi ditandai oleh peningkatan jumlah platelet yang beredar dan penurunan jumlah limfosit. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bahwa tingginya rasio platelet terhadap limfosit serum darah ibu merupakan faktor risiko terjadinya KPD preterm. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian cross-sectional dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 70 sampel, dan terbagi menjadi kelompok berisiko (kehamilan preterm dengan KPD) dan kelompok tanpa risiko (kehamilan preterm tanpa KPD). Penelitian ini dilakukan di kamar bersalin IGD serta Poli Obstetri dan Ginekologi RSUP Sanglah Denpasar periode Desember 2020 hingga Mei 2021. Data dianalisis dengan SPSS versi 26 untuk Windows. Hasil: Hasil analisis dari penelitian ini didapatkan perbedaan yang bermakna secara statistik (p = 0,000). Kelompok dengan nilai rasio platelet terhadap limfosit serum darah ibu yang tinggi memiliki risiko mengalami kejadian KPD preterm dibandingkan dengan kelompok dengan rasio platelet terhadap limfosit serum darah ibu yang rendah (PR = 2,4, IK 95% = 1,60-3,69, p = 0,000). Kesimpulan: Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah rasio platelet terhadap limfosit serum darah ibu yang tinggi merupakan faktor risiko terjadinya kejadian KPD preterm.
