Brief Summary
|
This study was a randomized prospective controlled study comparing the efficacy of combination of two drugs ampicillin plus azithromycin(group-A) with ampicillin plus erythromycin(Group-B) in pregnant patients with preterm premature rupture of membranes. The study was conducted at R.G.KAR Medical college, Kolkata with a samle size 114 and study duration of one year. The primary outcome of the study was latency and the secondary outcomes were safety of antibiotics,gestational age at delivery,chorioamnionitis,puerperal sepsis,birth weight,APGAR score,RDS(respiratory distress syndrome),neonatal sepsis, neonatal mortality,days of NICU stay. After statistical analysis, no statistical difference was found between two groups in term of latency,maternal and neonatal outcomes except statistically significant difference in mean birth weight and NICU stay between two groups. |
