Proper assessment of the patient requires a careful integration of history, physical examination, and clinical testing. The most commonly used tests are analysis of vaginal pH with nitrazine paper and evaluation of vaginal secretions with the arborization test ...

Premature Rupture of Membranes
2021Prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM) complicates less than 10% of pregnancies and is defined as rupture of membranes before the onset of labor. However, if PROM occurs before 37 weeks, it accounts for 30–40% of cases of prematurity. Management of PROM is influenced by gestational age at the moment of rupture and the presence of complicating factors ...
