How Can PROM be Prevented?

- Prenatal Care: Regular prenatal visits allow for early detection and management of risk factors.
- Treatment of Infections: Prompt treatment of maternal infections can reduce the risk of PROM.
- Cervical Cerclage: In cases of incompetent cervix, a surgical procedure called cervical cerclage can help prevent premature cervical dilation.
