Primary Outcomes (1)
relation between serum vitamin C concentration and PPROM
6 months
Study Arms (2)
study group
Study group included 20 pregnant women with PPROM and fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
control group
Control group also included 20 pregnant women without PPROM following every recorded case of PPROM and matched for gestational age.
Eligibility Criteria
This study will be conducted at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology recruiting pregnant women selected from the attendees of antenatal clinic, emergency department and from inpatient wards of Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital starting from January 2016. This study will include 40 pregnant women between 28-37 weeks were recruited.
You may qualify if:
- Singleton pregnancies

- Rupture of membranes will be diagnosed by history, sterile speculum examination to confirm fluid leakage from the cervical canal
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with multiple pregnancies
- Smoker
- Polyhydramnios
- Maternal diseases such as: anemia, diabetes, UTI, RTI and vaginal infection
- History of PPROM in previous pregnancies
- Evidence of chorioamnionitis in current pregnancy
