“…This may be caused by work related stress; exerting effort in work and difficult transportation in Egypt may induce PPROM with all its consequences. This result goes in agreement with Sathenahalli et al, 2016 who reported that maternal manual labor during pregnancy was associated with higher incidence of prematurity and low birth weight. 37 The lack of significant association in the present study between smoking & poor fetal outcome was similarly reported in Zambia.…”

“…In the current study 2% of infants had neonatal sepsis, similarly, Nabhan et al, 2014 reported that 3.5% of infants of mothers having PPROM at Ain Shams maternity hospital developed sepsis. 36 But this rate is low if compared to rates of 18% in a study in Assuit and 6.7% in Bangladesh [16 & 31]. The higher rate of sepsis reported in these studies may be due to difference in diagnostic criteria as diagnosis of sepsis was based on histopathological findings rather than clinical diagnosis as performed in the current study.…”

Abstract:Background: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is one of the leading identifiable causes of premature birth and it accounts for high rates of perinatal deaths in developed and developing countries. Objectives: The study was conducted to measure the prevalence of PPROM among pregnant women attending Ain Shams maternity hospital, and to identify the fetal/neonatal outcome among pregnant women presented with PPROM and potential factors associated with poor fetal/neonatal outcome. Method: A cross sectional study was conducted on two phases using data retrieved from computerized hospital information system (HIS), Ain Shams Maternity Hospital. Data about all deliveries from 2011-2015 was revised from Hospital Information System to calculate the frequency of PPROM during these years. A sample of 300 medical files of pregnant women who were diagnosed with PPROM before 37 weeks and admitted to the hospital in the year 2015 were then extracted from the hospital archive and revised using a checklist developed by the investigators. Relevant data was obtained from these medical files.

“…But it is now known that they are other underlying factors. Some of these factors are [13]; low number of prenatal visits, late initiation of prenatal care, and inappropriate prenatal care. Other factors are race, marital status, and low level of schooling, smoking, and poverty, low maternal weight, [13] [14].…”

Teenage pregnancy is a common public health problem worldwide because teenagers in general are ill-prepared to deal with the burden of pregnancy. Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest burden of teenage pregnancy precisely in the west and central Africa; in Cameroon, about 12% of all births are to teenage mothers. Complications from pregnancy and childbirth are the leading cause of death among girls aged 15 to 19. Though the trend of teenage pregnancy tends to decrease in most parts of the world, this is not the case in our setting. The main aim of this study was to determine the prevalence, outcomes and the associated factors of teenage pregnancy in the Bamenda Health District (BHD). Materials and Method: This was a hospital-based cross-sectional descriptive and analytic study carried out at the maternity and postnatal units of the Bamenda Regional Hospital and the Nkwen Medicalised Health Center. A consecutive non-probabilistic sampling technique was used to recruit participants. A pretested questionnaire was used to collect information from the participant. Data was analysed using the software SPSS version 23. Bivariate logistic regression was used to test for associations. Statistical significance was set at p-value less than 0.05. Result: A total of 325 participants were recruited of which 44 were teenagers. The mean age of the participants was 25.02 ± 0.257 years. The mean age of teenagers was 17.49 ± 0.63 years, and mean adult age was 28.43 ± 5.64 years. The youngest participant was 15 years. Teenagers were significantly more likely to prematurity
