Conclusion: Routine screening of pregnant women for vaginal GBS colonization by the antigen detection method from the inoculated broth, and treatment of positive cases with the proper antimicrobial drugs to prevent a possible neonatal infection, which may be acquired during delivery, should be carried ...

The results of the OIA were only moderately accurate and reproducible.Keywords:Group B Streptococcus,聽Rapid Diagnostic Test,聽Pregnancy Complications,聽Optical Immunoassay,聽AccuracyR...
Many countries have adopted screening strategies, such as the antepartum GBS screening culture at 35 to 37 weeks of pregnancy (antepartum culture), to identify women who need intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP) in order to avoid the GBS peripartum transmission to the fetus....
