ABSTRACT

Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is an obstetric problem which is one of the factors causing prematurity, infection, malpresentation, umbilical cord prolapse and perinatal mortality. This study aims to identify the relationship between sociodemographic and obstetric factors with the premature rupture of membranes in women giving birth.  This cross-sectional study involved 274 people from 859 deliveries from January to December 2020, at a referral hospital in Denpasar, Bali. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling. The process of collecting data was taken from medical records and hospital registers. Data analysis using chi-square and logistic regression. Study found that the prevalence of PROM was 22.6%. The results of multivariate analysis found that age (p=0.733), occupation (p=0.816), gestational age (p= 0.055), parity (p= 0.477), and intra uterine pressure (p= 0.105 ) were not associated with PROM. Educational factors (p=0.021), hemoglobin level (p=0.000), and history of PROM (p=0.005) were significantly related to the premature rupture of membranes. There is a relationship between education factors, hemoglobin levels and a history of PROM with premature rupture of membranes.  This information is important for service providers to understand so that they can carry out early detection and treatment efforts to prevent PROM.
