Objective: To investigate pregnancy outcomes in women with rupture of membranes at Tra Vinh Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital.
Subject and method: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 160 pregnant women diagnosed with membrane rupture and giving birth at the Obstetrics Department from 06/2021 to 06/2023. Data were collected from medical records and analyzed using SPSS with descriptive statistics.
Results: The most common reason for hospital admission was vaginal fluid leakage. Most women had a Bishop score ≥5 and cephalic presentation. Vaginal delivery was the primary mode of birth, followed by cesarean section. Chorioamnionitis and neonatal infection were observed in a small proportion of cases. The majority of newborns had a birth weight ≥2500 g and normal Apgar scores. The average length of hospital stay was 5.69 ± 1.5 days.
Conclusion: The study shows that most women with membrane rupture experienced stable pregnancy outcomes, with good neonatal adaptation and rapid maternal recovery. However, as the study was purely descriptive and did not analyze associations between risk factors and maternal–neonatal outcomes, the findings mainly reflect the characteristics of the study population and warrant further analytical research.
