Funded Activity Summary

Aboriginal mothers and babies in the Northern Territory have high rates of infection. A single dose of azithromycin given during labour (or prior to caesarean section) may reduce the rates of subsequent bacterial infection. This pragmatic clinical trial ('Azithromycin before Birth') will assess a simple intervention that has the potential to substantially improve health outcomes for women and babies at risk of new bacterial infection after birth.
