Premature Rupture of the Fetal Membranes

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
The membranes surrounding the amniotic cavity are composed of the amnion and the chorion, which are closely adherent layers consisting of several cell types, including epithelial cells, mesenchymal cells, and trophoblast cells, embedded in a collagenous matrix.

Fetal Activity in Premature Rupture of Membranes

American Journal of Perinatology, 1986
Fetal movement (FM) counts by mothers with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) may be helpful in estimating fetal well being, provided FM assessment is not altered by the reduced amniotic fluid. It is possible that the decreased uterine volume restricts fetal movements, though the closer contact of the fetus to the uterine wall may enhance maternal ...

Fetal growth after premature rupture of membranes

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1977
Four patients with preterm rupture of the membranes were treated conservatively. During the period of observation (five to nine weeks), each fetus displayed a normal rate of growth as measured by serial biperietal diameter determinations.

Fetal immune response following prematurely ruptured membranes

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1976
Concentrations of immunoglobulins (Ig)A1, and IgA2, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM have been determined in cord blood, amniotic fluid, and maternal serum in a group of patients with a history of prematurely ruptured membranes (PRM) prior to the onset of labor and in a control group of patients undergoing normal delivery and without a history of infection ...

Premature Rupture of Fetal Membranes

Clinical Pediatrics, 1966
The study here described represents another attempt to estimate under con trolled conditions the value of prophylac tic treatment with antibiotics for normal infants born to otherwise healthy moth ers after premature rupture of the am niotic membranes.

Full-term and prematurely ruptured fetal membranes

Cell and Tissue Research, 1981
The layers of the human amnion and chorion were examined by light and transmission electron microscopy. Comparisons among different anatomical sites with respect to full-term and prematurely ruptured membranes indicate that (a) the thickness of the membranes is reduced near the rupture point; (b) intercellular canals near the implantation site become ...

Ascorbic acid deficiency and premature rupture of fetal membranes

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1964
EASTMANI estimates the incidence of spontaneous premature rupture of the membranes to be approximately 12 per cent of all deliveries. Calkin? states that in 7,000 consecutive deliveries at the University of Kansas Medical Center, premature rupture occurred in 1 of 7 deliveries.

[Premature rupture of fetal membranes and premature labor].

Zentralblatt fur Gynakologie, 1977
The portion of early rupture of the membranes among 521 premature births from 1962 to 1971 was 43.4%. The statistically sure effects of the early rupture of the fetal membranes to some irregularities in pregnancy and delivery on 214 premature births are reported, compared with 202 premature births without early rupture of the membranes.

Premature Rupture of Fetal Membranes Changes in Collagen Type

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1988
AbstractCollagen from the chorioamnion units from premature and term pregnancies was solubilized by limited pepsin digestion and subjected to SDS‐PAG electrophoresis. Collagen types were quantitated by densitometry. It was found that collagen type III decreases and collagen type V tends to increase as gestational age advances.
