Prolonged premature rupture of membranes predisposes to intrauterine infection and chorioamnionitis, both of which have significant implications for neonatal outcomes. While chorioamnionitis has been linked to accelerated surfactant production and reduced respiratory distress syndrome, it is also associated with long-term pulmonary injury, including bronchopulmonary dysplasia and pulmonary hypertension. The objective of the study is to investigate the association between prolonged premature rupture of membranes, chorioamnionitis, and respiratory outcomes among preterm infants ≤34 weeks of gestation.
