Summary
The aims of this study are to determine whether antibiotics administered routinely in women
presenting with premature rupture of membranes later than the 37+0 weeks of gestation can
alter the rate of maternal and neonatal infection and to compare these rates between prompt
(< 12 hour) and delayed (≥ 12 hour) induction in the group of patients not submitted to
antibiotic prophylaxis.
