Title: What causes premature rupture of amniotic fluid? ——Analysis of potential risks and preventive measures during pregnancy
introduction
Premature rupture of amniotic fluid is one of the common complications during pregnancy, which refers to the rupture of the fetal membranes before delivery, causing the outflow of amniotic fluid. This situation may lead to risks such as premature birth and infection, posing a threat to the health of mothers and infants. This article will combine hot topics and structured data from the entire Internet in the past 10 days to conduct an in-depth analysis of the causes of premature rupture of amniotic fluid and provide scientific suggestions.

1. Definition and incidence of premature rupture of amniotic fluids
Premature rupture of amniotic fluid (PROM) can be divided into two categories: preterm (PPROM) and postterm (PROM). According to statistics, about 8%-10% of pregnant women will experience premature rupture of amniotic fluid, of which 3% are related to premature birth. The following is a comparison of data in recent years:
| years | Incidence rate (%) | Proportion of premature birth (%) |
|---|---|---|
| 2020 | 9.2 | 2.8 |
| 2022 | 9.5 | 3.1 |
| 2023 | 10.1 | 3.3 |
2. Common causes of premature rupture of amniotic fluid
According to medical research and clinical data, the main causes of premature rupture of amniotic fluid can be summarized into the following 6 categories:
| Cause classification | specific factors | risk level |
|---|---|---|
| Infectious factors | Vaginitis, urinary tract infection, chorioamnionitis | high risk |
| mechanical stimulation | Multiple pregnancy, polyhydramnios, external impact | medium risk |
| nutritional deficiencies | Insufficient vitamin C and copper elements | low risk |
| cervical insufficiency | Cervical shortening, uterine malformation | high risk |
| living habits | Smoking, alcoholism, overwork | medium risk |
| other | Advanced pregnancy, previous premature birth | medium risk |
