While there are multiple possible etiologies of PPROM, intra-amniotic infection has been implicated as a major contributor, especially at early gestational ages where fetal and neonatal adverse sequelae are frequent (Yoon, et al. 2000). Micro-organisms are recovered from the amniotic fluid obtained by trans-abdominal amniocentesis in 25-40% of women at the time of presentation with PPROM (Simhan and Canavan 2005).\n\nSignificant risks to the fetus following PPROM include both complications related to prematurity and to infection or inflammation (ACOG Practice Bulletin 2007). Complications related to prematurity include respiratory distress, intraventricular hemorrhage, and necrotizing enterocolitis. IAI, both clinically apparent and occult, is an important and potentially preventable cause of cerebral white matter injury and cerebral palsy. Ideally, an early diagnosis of IAI in the setting of PPROM is important to allow timely treatment and intervention. Amniocentesis is successful from 40 - 72% of the time with PPROM (Garite, 1982, Blackwell and Berry, 1999). Despite the accuracy for determining infection and the feasibility of amniocentesis, the vast majority of clinicians are reluctant and/or unwilling to perform this procedure in this clinical setting (Capeless and Mead, (1987). There is therefore a critical need for a noninvasive test to identify patients with IAI and PPROM. Timely identification of these sub-clinically infected patients is critical in designing rationale and efficacious treatment strategies that may reduce the fetal and neonatal sequelae associated with PPROM.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Women within the target gestational age range presenting to labor and delivery wards with documented rupture of amniotic membranes no greater than 24 hours duration.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subject is 18 years of age or older\n* Subject has singleton gestation\n* Subject has fetus with getstational age of at least 23 0/7 days and no greater than 33 6/7 days\n* Subject has diagnosis of preterm premature rupture of amniotic membranes as determined by at least two of the following:\n\n 1.
