56% (14/25) of cases treated with alternative regimens (p¼0.16). Mean duration of latency was 2.2 days (AE standard deviation (SD) 2.7) among cases treated with first-line antibiotics, compared to 1.8 days (AE SD 2.2) among cases treated with alternative regimens (p¼0.51). Results were confirmed in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSION: The use of alternative antibiotic regimens for the treatment of PPROM in cases of reported penicillin allergy was not associated with a significant difference in latency. However, due to small sample size, we were unable to evaluate alternative antibiotic regimens individually.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
