V Ganesh, and J J Apuzzio, and B Dispenziere, and K Patel, and B Bergen, and D B Louria

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.
