Background: The fetal membranes (Amnion and Chorion) maintain their integrity throughout the pregnancy and rupture spontaneously during the second stage of labour or the late first stage of labour at term. Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is defined as rupture of amniotic membranes prior to the onset of labour. If the membranes rupture after 37 weeks its called Premature Rupture of membranes (PROM) and if before 37completed weeks its called pre-term PROM (PPROM). The main aim of the study is to assess the pregnancy outcome, mode of delivery, neonatal outcome and the associated factors in patients presenting with premature rupture of membranes and comparing the outcome of term PROM with matched group of controls with intact membranes.
