  • Title: [Obstetrical management of Streptococcus agalactiae].
    Author: Quentin R, Morange-Saussier V, Watt S.
    Journal: J Gynecol Obstet Biol Reprod (Paris); 2002 Oct; 31(6 Suppl):4S65-4S73. PubMed ID: 12451360.
    Abstract:
    S. agalactiae is the main cause of maternal and neonatal infections. Correct bacteriological explorations of pregnant women and neonates with risk factors may allow early and effective antibiotherapy. The screening of S. agalactiae vaginal carriage at 34-38 weeks of amenorrhea and the administration of penicillin at delivery is considered as the best strategy for preventing S. agalactiae infections for asymptomatic patients.
