PRO•Mcomplete™ Test Kit 5
A rapid and accurate diagnosis of PROM improves patient outcomes and reduces overall hospital costs.
The diagnosis of PROM is based primarily on traditional methods that have been utilized for over 60 years. Traditional methods include the patient’s clinical history and physical examination using a speculum. The diagnosis of membrane rupture is typically confirmed by the visualization of amniotic fluid passing from the cervical canal and pooling in the vagina; a basic pH test of vaginal fluid (Amniotest™), or arborization (ferning) of dried vaginal fluid, which is identified under microscopic evaluation.
Despite this, diagnosing PROM remains a common problem, as there is no single universally accepted method for confirming the rupture of membranes.
Details
PRO•Mcomplete™ proposes an alternative tool to aid in the diagnosis of premature rupture of the fetal membranes by identification of IGFBP-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-1) and AFP (Alpha-Feto Protein) from amniotic fluid in a vaginal swab sample.
- Only test that measures both IGFBP-1 and AFP separately
- Higher sensitivity with the addition of AFP than IGFBP-1 alone
- Results as quickly as 10 minutes
- Non-invasive, no speculum required for accessible specimen collection
- Effective for all gestational ages
- Can be used in the presence of blood, semen, urine and hygiene products
- Available in single tests for Midwives, OB offices and remote triage locations
- Easy QC with external positive and negative controls
- Educational PowerPoint available for staff training to meet POC and hospital accreditation requirements
