    Abstract:
    Single-dose trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole prophylaxis after clamping of the umbilical cord decreased the rate of endomyometritis in high-risk patients by 50% when compared with placebo. This drug combination may affect the normal flora of the cervix the least so that superinfections should be rare.
