What is PPROM?

PPROM is an acronym for Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes. To explain it, we should break it apart: * Rupture of membranes (ROM) is the normal breaking of the amniotic membranes that occurs during labor. Most people call this "breaking their water." * Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) occurs when the amniotic membranes are ruptured (water breaks) before actual labor has started. Sometimes, physicians may rupture membranes prematurely in an attempt to induce or augment the labor process. PROM indicates this was not an intentional ROM * Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) indicates that there is premature rupture of membranes before the child has been carried to term (> 36 weeks gestation).

What is An other word for the Rupturing of the amniotic sac?
