Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) on maternal infections and outcome of preterm infants.

Methods: A total of 441 preterm infants and 387 mothers were enrolled as subjects. According to the presence or absence of PROM, the mothers were divided into non-PROM group with 104 mothers, PROM duration <72 hours group with 90 mothers, and PROM duration ≥72 hours group with 193 mothers. The three groups were compared in terms of clinical features of mothers and infants and complications.

Results: Compared with the control group and the PROM duration <72 hours group, the PROM duration ≥72 hours group had significantly higher maternal age, incidence rate of umbilical vasculitis, and rate of antibiotic use; the PROM duration ≥72 hours group had a significantly higher incidence rate of moderate-to-severe chorioamnionitis than the control group (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between the PROM duration ≥72 hours group and the PROM duration <72 hours group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group and the PROM duration <72 hours group, the PROM duration ≥72 hours group had significantly higher incidence rates of pneumonia and intracranial hemorrhage in preterm infants; the PROM duration ≥72 hours group had a significantly higher incidence rate of congenital infection and a significantly longer mean length of hospital stay compared with the control group (P<0.05), while there were no significant differences between the PROM duration ≥72 hours group and the PROM duration <72 hours group (P>0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that PROM duration ≥72 hours was an independent risk factors for pneumonia (OR=2.200, 95%CI: 1.386-3.492) and intracranial hemorrhage (OR=2.331, 95%CI: 1.420-3.827) in preterm infants.

Conclusions: PROM duration ≥72 hours significantly increases the risk of placental infection in mothers and it is an independent risk factor for pneumonia and intracranial hemorrhage in preterm infants.

目的: 探讨胎膜早破(PROM)对孕母感染及早产儿结局的影响。

方法: 以441例早产儿及其母亲(387例)为研究对象,根据孕母是否胎膜早破分为对照组(无PROM,104例),PROM时间 < 72 h组(90例)及≥72 h组(193例)。比较各组母、婴的临床特点及并发症差异。

结果: 破膜时间≥72 h组孕母的年龄、脐血管炎发生率以及抗生素应用高于对照组和破膜时间 < 72 h组(P < 0.05);中-重度绒毛膜羊膜炎的发生率高于对照组(P < 0.05),但与 < 72 h组的差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。破膜时间≥72 h组早产儿肺炎、颅内出血的发生率高于对照组和破膜时间 < 72 h组(P < 0.01);先天性感染的发生率、住院天数高于对照组(P < 0.05),但与 < 72 h组的差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。多因素回归分析显示,破膜时间≥72 h是早产儿发生肺炎(P < 0.05)及颅内出血(P < 0.05)的独立危险因素。

结论: 破膜时间≥72 h使孕母胎盘炎症发生风险增加,而且与早产儿肺炎、颅内出血发生相关。
