per 100,000 live births. Causes of the maternal mortality are still dominated
by bleeding, preeclampsia/eclampsia and infections. One of causes of infections
is premature rupture of membrane (PROM). PROM may increase morbidity and mortality
among mothers and children. Incidence of PROM is amount 10.7% of all
childbirths. This study aimed to analyze risk factors of PROM incidence at
Mother and Child Hospital of ANNISACiteureup, Bogor District in 2014. This
study was analytical study using case control design. Samples consisted of case
