Antenatal care of the patient with previous preterm premature rupture of membranes
Abstract
Although there is a 21% recurrence risk for PPROM, little research has been directed to the obstetric management of women with prior PPROM. This article reviews indirect information regarding risk assessment, diet, lifestyle factors, and infections. A management plan is suggested.
