Overview

Chorioamnionitis can be classified based on the presentation of the patient.

Classification

Chorioamnionitis may be classified according to the absence or presence of clinical signs and laboratory findings into two groups: clinical chorioamnionitis, and subclinical/histologic chorioamnionitis.[1][2]
