Premature rupture of membranes is the rupture of the amniotic membranes before the birth process occurs which can occur at sufficient or insufficient gestational age. Premature rupture of membranes is one of the causes of neonatal infection, preterm labor, hypoxia, fetal defects, increased incidence of SC, or failure of normal delivery. This study aims to determine the characteristics of pregnant women with premature rupture of membranes based on age, parity, and occupation, at Setio Husodo Kisaran Hospital. From the initial survey, the researchers obtained data from the medical records of the Setio Husodo Kisaran Hospital and found premature rupture of membranes in 99 mothers. This research is descriptive, using secondary data that can be recorded in the medical records of Setio Husodo Kisaran Hospital. 39.4 %), the majority of cases of premature rupture of membranes occurred in multiparous pregnant women as many as 22 (22.2 %), and cases of premature rupture of membranes in pregnant women who worked the majority were IRT 40 (40.4 %). Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that premature rupture of membranes is commonly found at the age of > 35 years, so it is recommended for pregnant women to take better care of their health because at the age of > 35 years where the reproductive organs and the functions of other organs have begun to decline so that the mother's uterus cannot work properly.
