Risk calculators and risk factors for Chorioamnionitis classification |
Chorioamnionitis may be classified according to the absence or presence of clinical signs and laboratory findings into two groups: clinical chorioamnionitis, and subclinical/histologic chorioamnionitis.[1]
- Subclinical/histologic chorioamnionitis indicates the inflammation of the chorion, amnion, and placenta in the absence of clinical signs.
- The presence of maternal fever, leukocytosis, maternal/fetal tachycardia, uterine tenderness, and preterm rupture of membranes (PROM) indicates the clinical chorioamnionitis.
