title: [Management in premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) at term--own experiences].
abstract: In our study the management and outcomes in 211 women with premature rupture of the membranes at term was analyzed. According to the time elapsed since PROM to delivery the study group was divided into four groups: within 6 h, within 6-12 h, within 12-24 h and over 24 h after PROM. The analysis was focused on the maternal age, obstetric history, induction of labor, mode of delivery, duration of interval between PROM and active labor, use of maternal antibiotics, newborns evaluation in Apgar score and the neonatal infections.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  1. In our study PROM at term occurred more frequently in primigravidae than in multigravidae. 2. The relationship between duration of time from the membranes rupture to delivery and frequency of labor induction, use of maternal antibiotics and neonatal infections was observed. 3. The higher percentage of cesarean sections in patients with interval from PROM to delivery less than 6 and over 24 hours was found.
