Antibiotics after water breaking early to prevent infection
Treatments studied
Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests different antibiotics to prevent infection in pregnancies where the water broke before 37 weeks, as long as labor hasn't started and there's no infection yet. It aims to find the best antibiotic to protect both mother and baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- The baby or babies are still alive
- You are planning to continue the pregnancy with active care for the newborn

This study tests whether giving the antibiotic azithromycin for a longer period can help prevent infections in pregnant people whose water breaks early (between 22 and 28 weeks). If you are staying in the hospital for monitoring, this treatment aims to keep you and your baby healthier for as long as possible before delivery.
This trial tests whether vaginal probiotics can help prevent infection in pregnant women whose water broke early (preterm rupture of membranes). It is for women with a single baby, between 24 and 32 weeks of pregnancy, who are being watched closely instead of being induced right away.
This study tests whether giving antibiotics to pregnant people with early water breaking (PPROM) before delivery improves outcomes. It aims to prevent infections and protect both parent and baby while waiting for delivery.
This trial tests a personalized treatment plan for people whose water breaks too early (before 34 weeks). The goal is to safely extend the pregnancy and improve health outcomes for both the parent and baby, while reducing the use of antibiotics.
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.
This trial tests whether a combination of two antibiotics (azithromycin and ampicillin) can help pregnant people whose water has broken between 34 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. The goal is to see if this treatment improves outcomes for both the parent and baby without causing early labor or infection.
