Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
prediction of birth timing by uterocervical angle in patients with Preterm Premature Rupture of the Membranes	7 month]	During the study period, women were enrolled and uterocervical angle were measured in the first evaluations of polyhydramnios patients in policlinics. Routine pregnancy follow-up was done by our team and weeks of delivery and maternal-fetal outcomes were noted.
