Abstract

To verify whether preterm premature rupture of membranes has effect on   neurodevelopmental outcome of Infant among preterm infants born at Hawassa Comprehensive Specialized Hospital of Sidama region, Ethiopia, 2022. A prospective cohort study design will be conducted for 2 years and 6 months  from March 1 /2022 to  August 30 /2024 .

The preterm infants will be categorized into Exposed group (preterm infants born after preterm PROM) and non-exposed group (preterm infants born after spontaneous preterm labour).and followed until  2 years of  age  to assess  neurodevelopmental outcome of infants  The data will be entered into Epidata software and exported to SPSS software for windows version 23. for analysis. Descriptive statistics will be computed. One-way Anova and post hoc comparisons with Scheffe's procedure will be used  X2 test or Fisher's exact test will be used to compare categorical variables  The study will be conducted from March 1 /2022 to  August 30 /2024.
