The accurate diagnosis of ROM, however, remains a frequent
clinical problem in obstetrics.3-4 Many currently-used tests have
significant limitations and are to some degree invasive,
requiring sample collection using speculum examination.1
AmniSure® is a rapid, non-invasive test that aids in the
detection of ROM in pregnant women with signs and
symptoms suggestive of the condition. It provides an
easy-to-interpret, accurate, and timely diagnosis that
enables clinicians to take opportune measures to
prevent complications.
The AmniSure® test does not require a speculum examination.
The sample is taken by sterile swab, which is inserted only
2-3 inches deep (5-7 cm) into the vagina. A clear “Yes/No”
result can be read in minutes (Figure 1).
