Official title
Azithromycin-based Extended-spectrum Prophylaxis in Scheduled Cesarean Deliveries
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Cesarean deliveries are the most common surgical procedure performed in the United States. A significant decrease in cesarean delivery associated maternal morbidity has been achieved with preoperative prophylactic single-dose cephalosporin, widely used before skin incision. Also, on laboring patients and/or with rupture of membranes, several studies suggest that adding azithromycin to standard cephalosporin prophylaxis is cost-effective and reduces overall rates of endometritis, wound infection, readmission, use of antibiotics and serious maternal events. Azithromycin has effective coverage against Ureaplasma, associated with increased rates of endometritis. Although two-drug regimen has been suggested for laboring and/or patients that undergo cesarean delivery, no studies have investigated the potential benefits of two-drug regimen in non-laboring patients.
