Introduction. Preterm birth is the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Objectives.

Non-experimental, observational, retrospective, cross-sectional, descriptive from National Institute Maternal Perinatal. Pregnancies with preterm premature rupture of membranes. I collect it of data from medical records. Results. There were 142 cases, the culmination of the delivery via was the cesarean (71,8 %), the mean age was 26,36 + 7,418 years. The nulliparous were more frequent 45,8 %. The mean gestational age was 29,06 + 2,590 weeks. The mean birth control was 2,35 + 2,101. The mean latency period was 10,68 + 12,305 days. Maternal outcomes were 34,5 % (49 cases) where the chorioamnionitis was most frequent 23,9 %. Perinatal outcome was 32,4 % (46 cases) where respiratory distress syndrome was the most frequent 21,8 %. The mean birth weight was 1 653,14 g + 460,219. Most preterm infants had good Apgar scores at birth. The mean days of hospitalization of the mother were of 15,30 days + 12,912. Conclusions.
