Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) occurs in 3% of pregnancies and is responsible for one third of all preterm births. PPROM will affect 120,000 women in the United States each year. It is associated with significant maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality resulting from infection, umbilical cord compression, abruptio placentae, and prematurity. The etiology is multifactorial, but the most significant risk factors are previous preterm birth and previous preterm premature rupture of membranes. Accurate diagnosis is extremely important to assure proper treatment. Evaluation is based on patient history and clinical examination. This review presents the available evidence and grades it according to the U.S. Preventative Task Force recommendations, In part I of this review, the definition, pathophysiology, and methods of PPROM diagnosis are presented. In part II, the management, treatment, neonatal outcome, and the maternal and fetal evaluation of women with PPROM in the presence of cerclage and medical complications is reviewed.
