Hello all! We have a pt that came in at 18 wks with prom. Dr has her on strict bedrest in trendelenberg most of the time. She leaked for first 3-4 days she was hospitalized, hasn't started
contracting. This pt hasn't leaked any fluid for past 3 days. Dr has ultrasound ordered for AFI. My question is, have any of you had a pt with this early of rom that had a successful pregancy? We are hoping! One of our nurses remembers one that was later gestation, continued to leak though, infant was not viable when born, lungs had not developed with minimal fluid. Thanks
I went in at 25 weeks, was put on bedrest in the hosp, given steroids and mag sulfate. I was allowed bathroom priviledges thats all. I delivered at 28 wks and she was 2 pounds, but only on a respirator for 2 days.
I am so sorry to hear about all these preemies passing away. I will remember to thank God more often for his/her gift to me.
My little girl is now 2 and doing well, no problems at all.
Thanks to everyone at Duke University Medical Center who helped me through.
Our pt had several days with no leaking. AFI had increased, Dr sent her home on bedrest. I will keep you all posted! We may have one of the miracles. Thanks!
