Popis: Background: Amniotic fluid index (AFI) and cervical length (CL) can be used to predict delivery latency, maternal, and neonatal outcome in cases of preterm premature rupture of membrane (PPROM). Aims and Objectives: The aims of this study were to study the AFI and CL as a predictor of pregnancy outcome in cases presenting with PPROM, to determine the AFI in cases presenting with PPROM, to determine CL ultrasonographically in cases presenting with PPROM, and to measure the efficacy of these parameters as a predictor of pregnancy outcome in cases presenting with PPROM. Materials and Methods: This was an ambispective observational study conducted from November 2019 to July 2021 in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in S. N. Medical College, Agra. A total of 100 women with singleton pregnancy and vertex presentation who presented to hospital within 12 h of spontaneous rupture of membrane (PPROM) from period of gestation 28–34+6 weeks were enrolled in this study. Results: Delivery latency was inversely related to period of gestation at pprom (P2.5 cm) and AFI >5 correlated with increased delivery latency and increased risk of maternal morbidity (chorioamnionitis, abruption, and cord prolapse).
