Özet

Aim We compared the outcomes of serial transabdominal amnioinfusion and expectant management on the perinatal and neonatal outcomes of pregnancies complicated with very early preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). Methods We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients with very early PPROM admitted to the University of Inonu School of Medicine from 2014 to 2019. All such patients received comprehensive counseling on the possible prognoses; all were offered pregnancy termination, expectant management, and serial transabdominal infusion. Results Sixty-three women met the inclusion criteria; 36 were assigned to the expectant management group and 27 were assigned to the amnioinfusion group. The median delivery latency and the gestational age at delivery were significantly higher in the amnioinfusion than the expectant management group [35 (11-90), 14 (7-48), p < 0.001; 27.6 (22.1-34.0), 22.3 (19.0-26.5), p < 0.001, respectively]. Serial transabdominal amnioinfusion was associated with significantly less neonatal mortality than expectant management (29.6 vs 83.3%, p < 0.001). Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that the odds of neonatal mortality were 6.12 times higher among neonates in the expectant management group compared to that of the serial transabdominal amnioinfusion group after adjusting for potential confounders. Severe neonatal morbidities were significantly more common in the expectant management group than in the amnioinfusion group (p = 0.011). Conclusion The present study has demonstrated a significant positive effect of serial transabdominal amnioinfusion procedure on latency period and neonatal morbidity and mortality in pregnant women complicated with very early PPROM.
