Group B Strep and Early Water Break in Pregnancy
Part of Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether Group B Strep infection is linked to premature rupture of membranes (when the water breaks early) in pregnant women. It may help find ways to improve care for you and your baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be pregnant
- Your water must have broken (membranes ruptured) after the 34th week of pregnancy
- You cannot have a bleeding disorder
- You cannot have an emergency medical condition

This study collects information from parents about newborns who had an invasive Group B Strep infection around the time of birth. It aims to better understand the long-term effects of this infection.
This study compares two medicines to start labor after your water breaks early: one medicine (PGE2) is given first, then another (oxytocin), versus giving oxytocin alone. It aims to see which approach leads to a safer and smoother delivery.
This study looks at how common certain hard-to-treat bacteria are in pregnant women whose water breaks early. It aims to help doctors better understand infection risks and guide treatment choices.
This trial tests two antibiotic approaches for pregnant women at term (37+ weeks) whose water bag has broken. Researchers are comparing ampicillin alone versus ampicillin plus gentamicin to see which approach better prevents infection and leads to better outcomes for mother and baby.
This trial compares two different “preventive” antibiotic schedules for pregnant people whose water breaks more than 18 hours before labor, or who go into preterm labor. The goal is to see which plan better helps mother and baby by reducing infection-related complications.
This trial studies whether taking antibiotics can help in pregnancies where the “water” broke early (before 23 weeks) but you don’t have a fever. It aims to reduce complications while keeping both mother and baby as safe as possible.
