Abstract
We study the maximal immediate extensions of valued fields whose residue fields are perfect and whose value groups are divisible by the residue characteristic if it is positive. In the case where there is such an extension which has finite transcendence degree we derive strong properties of the field and the extension and show that the maximal immediate extension is unique up to isomorphism, although these fields need not be Kaplansky fields. If the maximal immediate extension is an algebraic extension, we show that it is equal to the perfect hull and the completion of the field.
