Interleukin-6 bedside test in detecting chorioamnionitis in women with preterm premature rupture of fetal membranes.

The IL-6 bedside test is an accurate, non-invasive bedside test with 98.6% sensitivity, 94.7% specificity, 97.3% PPV, 97.3% NPV, and 97.3% overall accuracy in detecting chorioamnionitis. The IL-6 bedside test had significantly higher sensitivity, specificity, NPV, and overall accuracy than the clinical and laboratory parameters of chorioamnionitis.
