Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare dexamethasone in late preterm deliveries. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce the need for respiratory support in late preterm infants? Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce neonatal morbidities and mortality? Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce admission to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and length of hospital stay? Participants will be allocated into 2 groups: intervention with dexamethasone IM and control (standard care). Investigators will compare these two groups to see if antenatal dexamethasone reduces the need for respiratory support in late preterm infants, neonatal morbidities and mortality, admission to NICU and length of hospital stay.
