RETRACTED ARTICLE: Fetal fibronectin (Quick Check fFN test) versus placental alpha microglobulin-1 (AmniSure test) for detection of premature rupture of fetal membranes

Abstract: fFN bedside test is better than nitrazine and ferning tests in detection of PROM, but is not suited for identification of clinically difficult cases with suspected PROM, because, it is influenceable and can give false-positive results in preterm labor, women >34 gestational weeks and after any vaginal manipulation without PROM.

“…1,2 Premature fetal membranes rupture occurs in 2 -18% of all pregnancies, while, preterm premature fetal membranes rupture occurs in 0.7-4%. 3 Management of ruptured fetal membranes (ROM) should be conservative if ROM occurs before 37 weeks` gestation, while, labor should induced if ROM occurs at term. 4 Failure to identify women with premature fetal membranes rupture associated with infectious morbidities.…”

“…Diagnostic hysteroscopy showed intrauterine synechiae Ultrasound-guided surgical suction evacuation (US-SSE) for missed miscarriage weeks' gestation. The woman was admitted to the hospital at 37 weeks + 5 days gestation (2 days before the scheduled date for elective CS), due to PROM diagnosed by the patient's history of sudden gush and pooling of amniotic fluid, confirmed by visualization of fluid passing from the cervical canal during sterile speculum examination, and a positive AmniSure test[10][11][12].…”
