Amnioinfusion for chorioamnionitis [PDF]
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015 Chorioamnionitis is a leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Amnioinfusion aims at reducing the adverse effects of chorioamnionitis by dilution of the infective organisms or by an anti-microbial effect of the fluid infused.The objective of this review was to determine the effect of amnioinfusion on clinical and sub-clinical ...

Understanding Host-Pathogen Interactions in Acute Chorioamnionitis Through the Use of Animal Models
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Inflammation of the chorion and/or amnion during pregnancy is called chorioamnionitis. Acute chorioamnionitis is implicated in approximately 40% of preterm births and has wide-ranging implications for the mother, fetus, and newborn.
