Outpatient management was considered in women with clinical, ultrasound and analytical stability, and easy access to hospital.

Postpartum curettage, uterine atony, respiratory distress syndrome, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia were less frequent in the outpatient group. Composite maternal\u2010fetal morbidity and mortality outcomes were similar in both groups, while composite neonatal morbidity and mortality outcomes were significantly lower in the outpatient group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Outpatient management may be an option for women presenting stable PPROM before 34\u2009weeks when adequate selection criteria are fulfilled. Differences in perinatal outcomes in the outpatient group compared with the inpatient group are probably attributable to baseline characteristics. Further prospective randomized studies are needed to confirm the benefits of outpatient management in
