Objectives: To determine the prevalence of preterm prelabour rupture of the membranes (PPROM) at Canadian university-affiliated perinatal referral centres, to assess the different management strategies, and to review neonatal outcomes.
Methods: Twelve Canadian university-affiliated perinatal referral centres provided information on their management of PPROM, and 9 participated in data collection to determine prevalence. All women presenting with PPROM during a 2-week period were observed until delivery, and obstetric and neonatal outcome data were subsequently obtained.
