Would fetal gastroschisis change your management with PPROM?

Not sure why you're not delivering this patient with pprom at 36 weeks.

I have a question, which Bob Carpenter and I have discussed, but I wanted the groups opinion.

18 yo G1 at 35 weeks, PPROM. Started on Amp and Erythromycin prophylactically, but could not tolerate the Erythro, so this was stopped. GBS came back negative. Patient is now 36 weeks. My question is, in the face of data that shows in increase in resistance and necrotizing enterocolitis with ampicillin, Unasyn or Augmentin without erythromycin, would you continue the ampicillin? Now, let?s add the fact that the baby has gastroschisis?what would your antibiotic option be?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
