Journal of Chemotherapy, 2007 Chorioamnionitis is an inflammation of the placental membranes induced by microorganisms which reach the endometrial cavity from the vagina and uterine cervix. Premature labor frequently depends on infections. In patients with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) antibiotic treatment can prevent intra-amniotic inflammation if it is absent at admission.

Chorioamnionitis most often occurs during labor, affecting as many as 10% of laboring women. When intrapartum chorioamnionitis occurs, women are at peripartal risk for endometritis, cesarean birth, and postpartum hemorrhage; and the neonate is at significant risk for sepsis, pneumonia, respiratory distress, and death.

Significance of chorioamnionitis
Early Human Development, 1992In preterm deliveries, we have reported a high incidence (30-50%) of histologic chorioamnionitis (CAM) in the placenta. There is little evidence about the effects of CAM on preterm infants. We investigated the levels of complements and cytokines in the cord blood, the pathological nature of the placenta, the L/S ratio of gastric and tracheal aspirate ...

In summary, acute intra-amniotic infection or chorioamnionitis is a relatively common complication of pregnancy and may be associated with significant maternal and neonatal morbidity. Maternal mortality is rare, as is mortality in term infants. Mortality in premature infants is probably related to prematurity itself rather than infection per se ...

CHORIOAMNIONITIS AND ENDOMETRITIS
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1997Chorioamnionitis complicates 1% to 2% of all pregnancies and may affect 10% of women with certain risk factors. Intraamnionic infection may result in devastating morbidity for both the fetus and the mother. Also, chorioamnionitis is associated with higher cesarean section rates. As demonstrated earlier, endometritis is a common complication of cesarean

Early neonatal brain injury in histologic chorioamnionitis
Journal of Pediatrics, 2001 The relation between clinical or histologic chorioamnionitis and early neonatal adverse neurologic outcome was investigated (n = 483). Histologic, but not clinical, evidence of chorioamnionitis was found to be a significant predictor of periventricular ...

Neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm histological chorioamnionitis
Early Human Development, 2009 The role of histological chorioamnionitis in neonatal neurological outcome is not yet fully understood. The present study aimed to assess the neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm babies born after pregnancy complicated by histological chorioamnionitis ...
