Factors influencing the incidence of premature rupture of membranes in Probolinggo District

Introduction: Premature rupture of membranes (PROM) is the rupture of the amniotic membranes before there are signs of labour. Objective: This Study aims to analyze the factors that influence premature rupture of membranes. Methods: This research is analytic research with a cross sectional design. The research was conducted in Probolinggo Regency. The population is all mothers giving birth in Probolinggo Regency in June - August 2021 as many as 90 people. The sampling technique uses total sampling. Sample: all mothers giving birth in Probolinggo Regency in June - August 2021 as many as 90 people. Bivariate data analysis with Chi-Square and multivariate logistic regression. Results: Based on the results of bivariate analysis using Chi-Square, namely the variable abnormality of the location of the fetus with the result P value <α = 0.002 <0.05 there is a relationship between abnormalities of the location of the fetus and the incidence of PROM. The pre-eclampsia variable with a P value <α = 0.006 <0.05 has a relationship between pre-eclampsia and the incidence of PROM. The variable history of PROM with the results of P value <α = 0.007 <0.05 there is a relationship between PROM history and the incidence of PROM. The results of multivariate analysis using logistic regression showed that the dominant factor influencing the incidence of PROM was the variable abnormality of the position of the fetus with an OR of 7.999. Conclusion: Health workers, especially midwives, continue to promote health about premature rupture of membranes so that the mortality rate for mothers and babies in Indonesia caused by infection due to PROM decreases.
