The authors report on their experience collected over a year of the use of the diamine-oxydase activity test after having collected the vaginal secretions on strips of Whatman paper placed in the vagina when they were trying to recognise premature rupture of the membranes. They studied: a control series of 90 patients (30 where the rupture was certain, 60 where it was definite that there was no rupture). They point out how reliable the method is at all stages of pregnancy and how simple and easy it is to carry out; a series of 89 consecutive patients whose clinical picture suggested premature rupture of the membranes; the diagnosis was shown to be wrong 48 times and confirmed 41 times (either immediately in 38 tests using DAO, or 48 hours after carrying out the first test in 3 cases). If this test is used to confirm that the membranes have really ruptured and to say when they have ruptured diamine-oxydase can be a very valuable factor when it is associated with the clinical picture and the ultrasound picture in leading to a rational handling of the case.
作者报告了他们在试图识别胎膜早破时，将阴道分泌物采集在置于阴道内的Whatman纸条上后，使用二胺氧化酶活性试验一年多来收集的经验。他们研究了：一个由90名患者组成的对照组（30名胎膜破裂确定的患者，60名确定未破裂的患者）。他们指出该方法在妊娠各阶段的可靠性以及实施起来多么简单容易；一组连续89名临床症状提示胎膜早破的患者；诊断被证明错误48次，得到证实41次（38次使用DAO试验时立即得到证实，3例在进行首次试验48小时后得到证实）。如果使用该试验来确认胎膜确实已破裂并确定破裂时间，那么在结合临床症状和超声图像以合理处理病例时，二胺氧化酶可能是一个非常有价值的因素。
