摘要
A modified Reality vaginal pouch (Wisconsin Pharmacal, Jackson, Wis.) was effective in assessing membrane integrity in patients evaluated for suspected premature rupture of the membranes and was useful for collecting fluid in patients requiring pulmonary maturity studies. This technique does not alter the incidence of infection and is beneficial in the management of selected patients.
