NCT ID NCT02997345
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is a patient registry for women diagnosed with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Researchers will collect data from 3,000 participants to identify possible causes, evaluate care trends, and review short- and long-term outcomes for mothers and babies. No treatment or intervention is being tested.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this registry could help identify causes of PPROM and improve care for future pregnancies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial. It will not directly help participants and may not lead to immediate changes in care.
