Attitudes and awareness of Australian women regarding peripartum antibiotic use: A multicentre survey

Matthew Black et al.

Summary: Many women lack awareness of peripartum antibiotic use, and most have concerns about side effects. Improved communication regarding peripartum antibiotic use would improve patient-centered care.

Calculating the appropriate prophylactic dose of cefazolin in women undergoing cesarean delivery

Yuval Fouks et al.

Summary: Administration of cefazolin to pregnant women before Cesarean delivery can prevent surgical-related infection. One or two grams of cefazolin before the incision can provide adequate serum concentrations.

Intrapartum antibiotics and childhood asthma and allergic rhinitis: a retrospective cohort study

M. Richards et al.

Summary: In a retrospective cohort study, researchers found a significant increase in the use of intrapartum antibiotics among women over a 20-year period, while the incidence of asthma and allergic rhinitis remained relatively stable. Adjusted models showed that the association between intrapartum antibiotics and asthma/allergic rhinitis risk was largely inconclusive, with only slightly elevated risk ratios observed.

Influence of timing of maternal antibiotic administration during caesarean section on infant microbial colonisation: a randomised controlled trial

Thomas Dierikx et al.

Summary: Cesarean section delivery has a strong impact on infant microbiome colonization, but maternal antibiotic administration before CS does not exacerbate the compromised microbiome. Long-term health effects need to be confirmed by larger studies.

Long term impact of prophylactic antibiotic use before incision versus after cord clamping on children born by caesarean section: longitudinal study of UK electronic health records

Dana Sumilo et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of using antibiotic prophylaxis before and after cesarean section on child health up to age 5. The findings suggest that there is no significant association between pre-incision antibiotic use and the risk of asthma and eczema in children born by cesarean section.

The human microbiome in sickness and in health

T. Requena et al.

Summary: The study of the human microbiome has significantly increased understanding of its importance for health, particularly in the skin, oral cavity, and intestinal tract. Lifestyle, age, diet, and antibiotic use influence the composition and functionality of human microbiota. Reduced microbial diversity may contribute to the development of diseases. Further metagenomic studies are needed to understand the functional involvement of the human microbiome in human health.

A scoping review of maternal antibiotic prophylaxis in low- and middle-income countries: Comparison to WHO recommendations for prevention and treatment of maternal peripartum infection

Imogen Jury et al.

Summary: The study found limited evidence to challenge current WHO recommendations for prevention of peripartum infections in low- and middle-income countries, but implementation challenges exist. Research is needed to ensure that peripartum prophylactic antimicrobial choices remain effective, especially in the face of emerging antimicrobial resistance.

Adherence to best practice: Preventing surgical site infection following caesarean section in Australia

Elizabeth Martin et al.

Summary: The study found that adherence to best practices during caesarean sections is low among many Australian obstetricians. Collaboration between infection control practitioners and obstetricians is needed to implement surgical safety checklists and monitor implementation using key performance indicators, audits, and feedback. These strategies will help reduce unwarranted variation from evidence-based infection control practices.

The Association Between Intestinal Bacteria and Allergic Diseases-Cause or Consequence?

Pei Han et al.

Summary: The incidence of allergic disorders is increasing in industrialized countries. The pathogenesis of allergic diseases is complex and involves genetic, environmental factors. The association between intestinal microbiota and allergic diseases is significant, but the precise mechanisms are still unknown.

Risk factors for surgical site infection following cesarean delivery: A hospital-based case-control study

Sedina Atic Kvalvik et al.

Summary: Cesarean section is a significant risk factor for postpartum infection. In a setting with low cesarean section rates, independent risk factors for surgical site infection include pregestational obesity, preexisting psychiatric conditions, blood transfusion during or following delivery, and signs of infection during labor. Women with these risk factors should be closely monitored for infection in the postpartum period.

Yuan Yao Chen et al.

Summary: This study identified the impact of birth mode and feeding status on the abundance of gut Bifidobacterium, as well as the important ecological role of the genus Bifidobacterium in gut microbiota due to its strong interaction with other gut microbiota in early infancy.

Effect of Intrapartum Antibiotics Prophylaxis on the Bifidobacterial Establishment within the Neonatal Gut

Silvia Saturio et al.

Summary: The use of intrapartum antibiotics prophylaxis negatively affects the establishment of bifidobacterial populations, impacting both diversity and compositional levels. Developing gut microbiota-based products should focus on promoting proper bifidobacterial microbiota development when intrapartum antibiotics prophylaxis is required.

Risks factors FOR wound complications after cesarean section

Marie Carbonnel et al.

Summary: Through a retrospective cohort study, it was found that preeclampsia and premature rupture of the membrane were independent risk factors for wound complications after cesarean section. More information and preventive measures regarding wound complications should be provided to high-risk women before surgery.
