No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Aim 1. To examine the latency period according to antibiotic regimens (erythromycin iv for two days followed by orally for 5 days vs. azithromycin iv for 2 days followed by 5 days orally).

Aim 2. To examine the latency period according to races stratified by antibiotic regimens.

Aim 3: To examine if there is a difference in neonatal morbidity and mortality stratified by antibiotic regimen.

Conditions

  • Preterm Premature Rupture of Membrane

Interventions

DRUG

Antibiotics

In the absence of labor, broad-spectrum antibiotics (often called latency antibiotics) are recommended for women with PPROM less than 34 weeks to reduce chorioamnionitis, prolong latency, and decrease neonatal sepsis (12,13).
