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?
