Abstract

Introduction: the aims of the study were to explore factors associated with Prelabor Rupture of the Membrane (PROM) and mode of delivery of PROM at secondary health care.
Methods: a retrospective case-control study within a year observational period. Data were collected from medical record St. Khadijah I Mother and Child Hospital Makassar and statistically analyzed using SPSS program.
Results: there were 4003 samples with 259 cases with PROM. Parity and Body Mass Index (BMI) were factors associated with PROM with p = .000, and .032 consecutively; among them, BMI was more prominent than parity with OR = 2.392, and 95% CI = 1.052 to 5.442. Secarean section is not associated with PROM, p = .000.
Conclusion: primigravidae and obesity were factors associated with PROM, and BMI was more strongly associated with PROM than parity. PROM is not an indication for cesarean section.
