A Comparison of Bed Rest Versus Moderate Activity in Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes (PPROM)

Stopped early · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Preterm Premature Rupture of the Membranes, Physical Activity

In brief

Bed rest has been a commonly prescribed intervention for high risk pregnancies, despite the lack of data to support its benefits, and increasing evidence pointing to potential harms. In this study, the effects of bed rest compared to moderate activity will be on maternal mood and muscle strength will be evaluated in patients with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM).
