Can a miscarriage due to premature rupture of membranes not be prevented?
In early pregnancy, if there is a rupture of the membranes, conservation treatment to maintain the pregnancy is not conducted, because such a miscarriage cannot be prevented. However, if the rupture of the membranes occurs around seven months of pregnancy, conservation treatment is possible. This treatment can extend the pregnancy for one to two weeks, during which the fetus will mature. Then, if there is no intrauterine infection, it is generally safe for about a week. If more than a week passes and the fetus is still alive, it is possible to deliver the baby through cesarean section. Given current medical conditions, the chances of survival for a child at seven months of pregnancy are considerably high, therefore conservation treatment at this stage is feasible.
