Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

It is hypothesized that the procalcitonin has a role to play in prediction of intra-amniotic subclinical infection.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study population

* This study will be conducted at the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology recruiting pregnant women selected from the attendees of antenatal clinic, emergency department and from inpatient wards of Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital from Mars2014.
* This study will include 100 pregnant women these cases will be divided into 2 groups:
* Group 1: Healthy preterm Group: will include 50 pregnant females all at 24-34 weeks of gestational age .
* Group 2: Preterm premature rupture of membrane Group: will include 50 pregnant females all at 24-34 weeks of gestational age

procalcitonin,prematureruptureofmembrane in blood

Complete history including (special habits like smoking and alcohol taking, menstrual history especially LMP, medical diseases, past obstetric history including duration, mode of delivery for each pregnancy, and if there were fetal or maternal complications).

Physical examination including (general condition, height, weight, vital signs).-Ultrasound to execlude multiple pregnancies, IUFD and to confirm oligohydraminos in group2.

The venous blood samples will be taken for measuring of -Procalcitonin in mothors -CRP and WBCs in mothers to detect infection -CRP in neonates of mothers of group 2.

They will be asked for their permission and consent.
