Abstract

(Am J Obstet Gynecol. 2023;228:326.e1–13) The rupture of membranes prior to labor (PROM) can be associated with dangerous complications. It is theorized that consistent monitoring and early induction can improve the outcome of women with PROM. The Term Prelabor Rupture of Membranes (TERMPROM) study is a study conducted to assess the effects and treatments of PROM. This study aimed to analyze and compare the TERMPROM study with the use of induction of labor (IOL) during pregnancy to reduce PROM effects.
