Abstract

The pregnant woman's admission and delivery; 3 The notification of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) result and the administration of antibiotics. These details, plus any others that would help to establish the obstacles that there were to PCR testing, and using the results to inform the timely administration of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis against early-onset group B streptococcus infection, would be very interesting. & Reference 1 Poncelet-Jasserand E, Forges F, Varlet M, Chauleur C, Seffert P, Siani C, et al.
