Summary

This is a prospective randomized controlled trial investigating the timing of betamethasone administration in late preterm infants in relation to delivery and impact on neonatal hypoglycemia. Previous data has shown that neonatal hypoglycemia is increased in late preterm infants that were exposed to antenatal corticosteroids. The investigators hypothesize that the timing of steroid administration may impact the development of neonatal hypoglycemia.
