Adherence
Routine antibiotic prophylaxis following uncomplicated vaginal delivery does not significantly reduce the incidence of postpartum infections and may contribute to antimicrobial resistance without clear clinical benefit.
For uncomplicated vaginal deliveries, routine antibiotic prophylaxis is not recommended as it does not reduce infection rates and contributes to antibiotic resistance. Focus on hygiene and monitoring for signs of infection rather than preemptive medication.
In this study the incidence of postpartum infection was similar in both antibiotic prophylaxis and unprophylaxis women. The results of present study limits conclusions on the benefits of antibiotic intake... The available evidence is insufficient to support the use of routine antibiotic prophylaxis in women who had normal vaginal births.
Why this rating
The study is a large multicenter prospective cohort (n=21,968), but it is observational rather than a randomized controlled trial, limiting causal inference regarding the prophylaxis effect.
