Premature rupture of membranes, onset of labour within 24 hours - what does this mean
Premature rupture of membranes (prom) occurs when the amniotic sac surrounding the baby breaks open before the onset of labour. this can lead to the onset of labour within 24 hours, as the hormone oxytocin is released which causes the uterus to contract and the cervix to dilate, allowing the baby to be born.
What happens during the disease - premature rupture of membranes, onset of labour within 24 hours
Premature rupture of membranes (prom) occurs when the amniotic sac surrounding the fetus ruptures before the onset of labour. this can happen due to a weakening of the membranes, leading to a break in the sac. this can lead to a cascade of events, including the release of prostaglandins which can cause the uterus to contract and lead to labour within 24 hours. additionally, the risk of infection increases due to the lack of protection for the fetus.
