Background: It is well established that antibiotics administered in preterm prelabor rupture of membranes increases latency to delivery. While data is limited for membrane rupture prior to viability, antibiotics may also increase latency in this population.
Objective: To assesses the effect of prophylactic antibiotics on the duration of latency in individuals with previable prelabor rupture of membranes.
Objective: Patients with severe preeclampsia (sPREX) face barriers to successful breastfeeding (BF), including an increased risk of maternal and newborn complications, prematurity, and low birth weight. Patients with early-onset sPREX (before 34 weeks' gestation) may be at even greater risk, yet there are little data available on factors associated with BF challenges in this population. We describe rates of BF initiation at hospital discharge and BF continuation at postpartum (PP) visit and identify factors associated with BF noninitiation and BF cessation among patients admitted with early-onset sPREX.
