We assessed the impact of early AROM in preterm patients undergoing indicated induction of labor.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Study Design\u2003We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all patients undergoing indicated preterm induction (23\u201334 weeks) at a single tertiary care center from 2011 to 2014. Early AROM was defined as &lt;4 cm and late AROM was defined as \u22654 cm. The primary outcomes evaluated were cesarean delivery and time in labor. Secondary outcomes were chorioamnionitis and a composite of maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003Of the 149 women included, 65 (43.6%) had early AROM. Early AROM was associated with an increased time from the start of induction to delivery (25.7\u2009\u00b1\u200913.0 vs. 19.0\u2009\u00b1\u200910.3 hours, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.01) and with an increase in the risk of cesarean (53.4 vs. 22.6%, adjusted odds ratio: 3.5, 95% confidence interval: 1.60\u20137.74). Early AROM was not associated with an increased risk of chorioamnionitis or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusion\u2003In this observational cohort, early AROM was associated with an increased risk of cesarean. A randomized controlled trial is necessary to determine the optimal timing of AROM in preterm patients requiring delivery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0037-1612631","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,14]],"date-time":"2017-12-14T18:41:55Z","timestamp":1513276915000},"page":"716-720","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Does Early Artificial Rupture of Membranes Speed Labor in Preterm Inductions?"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Spencer","family":"Kuper","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Jauk","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sima","family":"Baalbaki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alan","family":"Tita","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lorie","family":"Harper","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Melissa","family":"Parrish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Center for Women's Reproductive Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,14]]},"container-title":["American Journal of Perinatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0037-1612631.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,18]],"date-time":"2018-06-18T18:43:58Z","timestamp":1529347438000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0037-1612631"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,14]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"08","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,18]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2018,7]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0037-1612631","relation":{},"ISSN":["0735-1631","1098-8785"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0735-1631","type":"print"},{"value":"1098-8785","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,14]]}}}
