Objectives: To determine the diagnostic value of the lactate concentration in vaginal secretions in determining the premature rupture of membranes. Subjects and Methods: One hundred 100 pregnant women with single pregnancy of gestational age 20–41 weeks were divided to two groups of 50 each. One group comprised of women with premature rupture of membranes, and the other (control group) of women...

The management of patients with PROM, regardless of gestational age, remains controversial. Generally, when patients are in labor, have infection, or there is irreversible fetal distress, there are few options other than delivery. For those not in labor, especially in premature gestational ages, the complexities of the many combinations of decisions to be made regarding the best methods for eva...

MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross sectional study was done on 60 pregnant women with first trimester vaginal bleeding referring to university hospitals affiliated to Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran. All women were evaluated for the outcomes including abortion, preterm rapture of membranes, preterm labor, secon...

Background: Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is defined as the fetal before onset labor. PROM complicates 8 – 10% pregnancies, contributing to maternal and perinatel mortality morbidity. Maternal pyrexia a sign observed in women with indicating intrauterine infection. Objective: To determine frequency among presenting premature membranes. Material And Methods: Department Obstetrics Gynecol...

Premature rupture of foetal membranes (PROM) complicates 10 % of pregnancies and is the most important identifiable cause of pre-term delivery. The diagnosis of PROM is based on the detection of amniotic fluid in the vagina. This can be achieved by chemical, clinical or biochemical methods. An ideal test should be specific for amniotic fluid and should not be affected by gestational age or inte...

The definition of PROM is rupture of membranes before the onset of labor. Membrane rupture before labor and before 37 weeks of gestation is referred to as preterm PROM. Management is influenced by gestational age and the presence of complicating factors, such as clinical infection, abruptio placentae, labor, or nonreasurring fetal status. An accurate assessment of gestational age and knowledge ...

bacterial vaginosis (bv) has been considered to be the most prevalent infection found in sexually active women. bv is thought to play an important role in the premature rupture of membranes (prom) and preterm birth. preterm delivery accounts for a substantial percentage of low birth weight infants and perinatal mortality and morbidity. bacteroides and prevotella species have been isolated from ...

Recent work on Internet information integration ~sumes a library of wrappers, specialized information extraction procedures. Maintaining wrappers is difficult, because the formatting regularities on which they rely often change. The wrapper verification problem is to determine whether a wrapper is correct. Standard regression testing approaches are inappropriate, because both the formatting reg...
