Dribble of amniotic waters – a dangerous complication of pregnancy. The woman can not notice that waters leak, in certain cases even medical examination is inefficient as dribble happens small doses. Violation of integrity of a cover of an amniotic bubble can lead to infection of a fruit, and at considerable dribble – to premature birth.
It is easy to confuse dribble of amniotic waters with vaginal allocations which during pregnancy can be plentiful because of candidiasis, sometimes take urine for dribble of waters – the bladder especially quite often brings women to the end of pregnancy. If you have no infections including caries, you had no infectious diseases on early terms, FLU or ORZ, watch over the health, you have a normal structure of bodies of a reproductive system, there were no neck of the uterus surgeries, there is no premature disclosure of a neck of the uterus, then the probability of dribble of waters is minimum.
It is possible to distinguish dribble of amniotic waters as follows: it is necessary to descend in a toilet, it is good to be washed away, carefully to wipe genitalia and as laying to use a small piece of light cotton fabric. If in 1.5-2 hours fabric became wet, then, most likely, waters really leak.
House diagnostic systems or test strips are more effective. Amniotic waters have neutral acidity whereas vaginal allocations can be sour or alkaline depending on presence of diseases. On packing there is an instruction. Usually at dribble of waters a certain quantity of strips or the image appears. Diagnostic laying – the most available and quite exact way to define dribble of waters. They cost cheaper than test systems, but work by the identical principle.
The house microscope with a set of subject glasses and the instruction allows in house conditions to define precisely waters leak or not. It is necessary to apply with a thin layer of allocation from a vagina on subject glass, to wait for drying and to look in a microscope. If you see fern leaves, then it is a strong indication of dribble. This technique is used also by obstetricians gynecologists as the most reliable and inexpensive though for a house method of diagnostics the device rather expensive.
Reliability of test systems and laying about 95%.
Women need to watch color and the nature of allocations more attentively. Vaginal allocations usually have whitish color if the woman has a milkwoman, then allocations can be dense and with a yellowish shade. Amniotic waters usually transparent, but can be pink, green or brown. Such color of allocations almost always testifies to a rupture of amniotic covers. It is necessary to lay down, call the ambulance and not to do sharp movements, modern methods of preservation of pregnancy allow to inform of pregnancy even in case of dribble of waters. If the test for dribble of waters positive, it is necessary to call the ambulance as it is required to bring as soon as possible the woman to maternity hospital as the rupture of amniotic covers can provoke childbirth, it is not recommended to go to maternity hospital independently – emergency doctors will hospitalize the woman on a stretcher or the wheelchair.
At suspicion on dribble of amniotic waters and impossibility to determine it by usual methods in a hospital can carry out tool survey of an amniotic bubble.
At an insignificant potdekaniye of waters the woman usually wears pregnancy until the end of term if dribble of waters is revealed on 37-38 week, then depending on extent of dribble or resort to stimulation of childbirth, or keep pregnancy up to approach of natural childbirth. At a rupture of fetal covers on early terms the risk of septic defeat of a fruit is high therefore practically always pregnancy is interrupted on medical indications.
