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: from pathogenesis to treatment [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011 Chorioamnionitis refers to inflammation of the amniochorionic membrane, and is a significant cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity. Chorioamnionitis most often occurs as a result of ascending infection, and is commonly associated with premature rupture of the membranes.

Candida tropicalis chorioamnionitis

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.

The Pathogenesis of Chorioamnionitis
The Journal of Pediatrics, 2008The pathogenesis of chorioamnionitis must be understood to discover how to diagnose the problem in its earliest stage and how to treat or prevent it. To do so, one must delve into the complexity of inflammation that encompasses not only the cellular aspects, but also the intertwined molecular processes that recruit, activate, modulate, and terminate ...

NeoReviews, 2008 Chorioamnionitis is a common complication of pregnancy, especially in preterm deliveries. This review covers the current understanding of the implications of the maternal and fetal inflammatory response in assessing the risk of neonatal sepsis, complications of prematurity, and risk of adverse neurologic sequelae.

Management of acute chorioamnionitis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1980Acute chorioamnionitis has been recognized as a major threat to both mother and fetus, but there has been little study of its therapy. On this service, the plan of management consists of parenteral, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy and prompt action to effect delivery.
